I3-spin screen glitch (Compositor)

,

Installed fedora 35 workstation ( Gnome ) and installed i3 on top of that.
Problem is when i scroll on firefox or play a video on Celluloid i see some glitches on the middle of my screen horizontally.
I googled some and found this FAQ post talking about compositor Compton.
I installed and tryed Compton but that didn’t solve the issue.
So, What to do now.?

Welcome to ask fedora.

Did you take time to read #start-here ? Do give you assistants we do need more information.
Could you please make us a:

inxi -Fzx in terminal and post the output as </> Preformatted text here.

p.s.
I changed your title and took away the HELP: Ask fedora is known for helping so no need to add this to the title.

Thank you for your time.
I have added the output of inxi -Fzx in the post.
If you need more information please let me know.

Hi,

Maybe you could try to install picom. It’s another compositor for Xorg. Also you could refer to this link page for some setting related to picom for some issues. On there you also could find about Firefox, Flicker, and Fullscreen Tearing on video.

This looks very similar to, Tearing artifacts on Intel graphics

There are some suggestions, but so far nothing has corrected the issue.
