Screen flickering issue on MacBook Air M1

My MacBook has suddenly started to flicker from the past 1 month. It only happens when I view the screen from certain angles (tbh, most angles). And the screen replacement is nearly 1/3rd the price of the MacBook. It's totally insane!!!!!!! I am a student struggling to end meets both academically and financial crisis at my home, thought MacBook could help me but was a disaster. Gotta leave from apple ecosystem soon :(((

Good Evening community. I have a 2023 MacBook Pro M2 Pro, and for some time now, every time I go to Settings and then to Display, or when I access the Control Center and then Screen Mirroring, or when I try to use the Handoff or AirPlay controls while connected to Wi-Fi, the screen starts flickering, showing dotted horizontal lines in a grayish color. I've done a clean format, booted in safe mode, run Apple's diagnostic tests, ensured all updates are current, and unpaired all external devices. As additional information, it seems like the screen is trying to connect to a non-existent external device, apparently this happens after logging in with iCloud. It's unbelievable that Apple isn't interested in resolving this issue, which seems to affect many users with their new M chips. Apple should also realize that not everyone has the ability to visit their stores since some people live far away, as if the U.S. were the center of the universe. Steve would be very upset to see how those in charge are allowed to do whatever they want to make money. Interestingly, this started happening right when my warranty expired.
