--- Comment #19 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
I was experiencing this issue and found that the cause was actually Firefox
forcing kwin to constantly repaint the screen; see
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1754810. Setting
`widget.wayland.vsync.enabled` to `false` on Firefox's about:config page fixed
the issue by making it no longer constantly repaint.

For people who are affected, by this issue, can you turn on the "Show Paint"
KWin effect, set a keyboard shortcut for it, and hit that keyboard shortcut? If
you see that the screen constantly flickers, then you're having the same issue
of *something* forcing the screen to constantly repaint.

There might be opportunities for KWin itself to handle this better, but apps
also need to cooperate.
