My browser (Firefox), and some games (mostly visible in Geometry Dash), run smoothly for ~2 seconds, then for a tiny bit drop/stutter to ~100fps.
Other visuals such as the selection box when you hold and move your mouse on the desktop, or just moving around a window seem to start off laggy, but “ramp up” to 144fps as you keep moving them.
This does not happen on my built-in laptop screen, it only happens on my external 2K screen. Both screens are 144hz. This also does not happen on X11, but i don’t want to use it as it often freezes on my favorite games. Bigger windows seem to lag more, and Geometry dash has stutters only if the window is a little bit bigger than 1K res.
From what i can tell this is probably related to either a high resolution, or using an external monitor in general
This might not be enough info, do ask more questions
