This is almost certainly a GPU driver issue. You should report it to whoever maintains mesa-amber. I'm afraid I dont have the time/interest to try to workaround bugs in legacy drivers. If you do, a PR is welcome, provided it has no costs for mainstream use cases.
Recently I've been noticing a graphical glitch on kitty, where the entire window becomes garbled. This seems to happen at random or at least I haven't spotted what causes it yet. Resizing the window fixes the issue for me.

Additional context I keep kitty opened almost all day long everyday, so this wasn't happening before. What did change on my end tho is that I've changed from using the standard
mesa
package to usingmesa-amber
because the regular mesa driver for this old CPU I'm using causes very frequent crashes on my system. But apart from kitty no other program is having any graphical issues.
