Description

### Steps to reproduce

Simply leaving the client open in the foreground causes graphical artifacts, the longer the client stays idle on screen.
It may be possible this issue is related to an upstream Electron bug however because all sorts of Electron apps have been having issues on Nvidia for years, sometimes even on Linux.
