What is this windows 95?

I was spinning up Chrome while trying to move around a Firefox window to my other monitor. Crazy though I haven't seen issues like this on any OS in at least a decade

Yup yup. I dread every driver update like my job depends on it (because it does)

This happens on windows 10 still.

The only window is Firefox, which makes it hard to tell, but I'd guess it's GNOME with the Aylur extension.

Yeah my setup is mostly out-of-box Ubuntu + a bunch of random crap I've experimented with over the years that never got properly uninstalled. I should probably do a fresh install one of these days but I'm looking to swap to a more hands-on repo if that day comes

Fixing and maintaining a linux box is good exercise. Ubuntu has been sucking, though. I've been on a straight Debian for about six months now.

Since Windows 8, no. The last version to support running without DWM.exe was 7. Long live 7 :(

This happens to me sometimes, I am running pop_os. It hasn't been a particular window / program that does it, just seem to happen when something is thinking harder than usual. Then it goes away, I ynno, I'm not a screen scientist.

I never see this kind of stuff with XFCE. I run various flavors of Debian that do not go through Ubuntu.

There's your problem, shit eats resources like a mofo.

Also stop using Chrome, stop giving it market share, Google is trying to DRM the whole Internet into using Chrome. LibreWolf on desktop, Fennec on mobile, both support all your addons, too!

Librewolf is a bit extreme, regular firefox will do.
