macOS Ventura flickering screen I updated my Macbook Air M1 to Ventura on Monday 24 Oct. Within a few hours my screen started to flicker.

Just got the 27" studio display. Terrible flicker I just purchased the 27" studio display to connect to my 2021 MacBook Pro. I started editing an image in Photoshop and terrible flickering.
