In this case, (im using Sober, which is obtained through flathub) the performance stats inside sober show me that im using a lot of gpu usage but system monitor says otherwise, i don’t know what’s causing this issue, it happened after i updated the app (Sober), but i suspect it isn’t correlated and it might be my hardware thats the problem.

This is what it says now:
and what it was like before the update:
also this is how much cpu it actually says on system monitor:
(edit: i forgot to say but the fps tanked from 100-115 to around 20-30 ish now, also tried troubleshooting my graphic drivers but im not really a tech savvy and i dont know if i actually fixed anything.)
