Could you maybe add the tauri info for your host system too? With vms involved this could be anything really 😅

And second question: This only happens with Tauri windows right? Which Desktop Environment is your VM linux Installation using?

[M3DZIK]

I don't have Linux on the VM, I have it installed as the main system, I don't use DE, it's just a window manager. I don't have tauri installed by cargo, this only happens in the tauri app

WM: bspwm OS: Arch Linux

Can you check if epiphany (also known as "Gnome Web") has the same problem? it's a browser that uses webkitgtk so with this we can see check if it's a tauri or webkit issue.

I guess this problem did not occur when I was using the webkit. I will check in the near future

This seems to be a bug in webkit.

I'm hitting this problem on Fedora 36 (Gnome, not on a VM) both on Wayland and Xorg. My tauri-app flickers when launched as an appimage, but Epiphany is perfectly smooth. I also noticed that the compiled binary from tauri-src/target/release does not flicker, but launching it through the appimage bundle does flicker. I know you're not supposed to run the tauri-src/target/release binary directly, but I thought it could be useful for debugging. I also tried to run different appimages (Discord, Krita), and I don't not see any significant flickering there.

Info:
OS: EndeavourOS Linux
Epiphany version: Web 43.0+

GNOME Web flickers too not just tauri app.

Is there a fix being worked on?
