Recently flickering on sericea-nvidia was reported in the HWE repo: ublue-os/hwe#260. A workaround or "fix" for a large amount of the flickering on sway is to switch to the vulkan renderer, the nvidia GPUs we support also support the vulkan required extensions and version. I also added an environment variable that fixes some java applications: _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1
