Hi,

I am on fedora 40, and for some reason, flatpak of libre office from flathub.dl is extremely laggy vs the fedora.registry.org flatpak.

I would like to use the official flathub repo of libreoffice but this is unbearably laggy vs the oddly enough - flatpak of it but from fedora.

When using both flatpak separately installed, they both have hardware accel on. But I have a strong feeling that it is not working for my flathub repo for some reason.

This is what my issue looks like. That is libre office lagging when scrolling. The fedora flatpak version does not have this jitter at all.

I actually have noticed a similar issue on the FW16, scrolling slowly works fine but anything moderate just… falls apart.

If you’re on fedora, use their flatpak repo, it works fine. I guarantee you it’s related to Wayland and other GPU issues not communicating.

I know this because when I installed signal flatpak, it was like some grainy 400x400 terrible dots per inch image.

I was able to edit the desktop.ini to include Wayland and ozone platform.

This was what I used to test out my idea, and I just put the lines of text into my exec on my desktop file.

flatpak run org.signal.Signal --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland

I’m thinking it needs to be something along these lines for libre office… But I couldn’t get it work doing something similar.
