Lots of graphical issues and glitches since Gnome47.
While having sort of fixed the glitching out and freezing of nautilus when maximizing the window with GSK_RENDERER=cairo in /etc/environment thanks to @super_mariofps’s post here, there is still another kind of subtler, less freezy, but still present and easily reproducible visual glitch when minimizing and restoring other apps, like gthumb for instance.
Please see this video for an example and pay attention to the top left part of the screen. The effect seems to be more egregious when apps are drawn directly over the desktop compared to over other apps (like firefox).
Even stranger still and kindly take my word for it, I promise I’m not crazy, the effect is much tamer in the video. I can’t understand how that’s even possible but the glitches were much more visible and more pronounced to my naked eye than they came out in the screen capture 
.
I’d appreciate any input on this.
Perhaps worth mentioning this doesn’t happen on wayland, only on X, but sadly, using wayland for more than doomscrolling is not an option for me, since I’m mostly using this machine for photo processing and video editing and color management and screen calibration is still not where it should be on wayland.
