For a bit now my compositing has been very broken, it got worse after an update but I did said update mainly because the compositing was broken. It will generally be a bit buggy and not render things like videos or changes on the screen properly then now when I alt+tab it completely crashes. Restarting KDE temporarily fixes the problem (for like 4 seconds) or until I alt+tab.
I took a quick video on how it looks but I can’t include links in my post. But to describe some of the visual issues it’s like when a video have terrible bitrate, big chunks of the screen won’t update unless some large change occurs which will make it refresh, also opening the taskbar it’ll usually be invisible then to see the icons I’ll have to hover over them. It’s a bit hard to explain but I hope you get the jizzt, while writing this I can only see what I write in the preview window it’s not updating in the text/editable area, again I took a screenshot but I can’t upload or embed media…
If I restart kwin in a terminal with
setsid kwin_x11 --replace &
I get this when it crashes. Sometime it’ll also set Compositing Enabled to False in kwinrc (but won’t set OpenGLIsUnsafe to true)

I’m a bit perplexed as to why this is happening, I’ve always had a little bit of a problem with graphics mainly in firefox but those happened rarely and was fixed by just restarting that window. Thank you reading and any help…
