If I have my browser maximized in my center monitor, whenever I go to search on Lemmy or go to my inbox and it is empty, the screen goes completely blank/black. It looks as if it lost power. If the browser is not maximized, it wont happen. This happens whether I use Chrome or Firefox. Any ideas on how to start troubleshooting?

  • OS: KDE Neon 6.0
  • KDE PLasma: 6.0.2 (happened with KDE 5.x too)
  • GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
  • Monitor messing up in connnected to the HDMI port.
  • Other two monitors are connected (a) to the DisplayPort and (b) DVI-D

That sounds a little bit like a hardware issue. Lemmy can't effect the display as that's not possible.

What movements are you doing when visiting Lemmy? Could you be unplugging something? Try wiggling your setup.
