Mac Book Pro Flickering Screen and cursor issues

As I am typing this - my 15 inch - retina screen 2016 MacBook Pro (Mac OS High Sierra)- the screen flickers every 30 seconds or so and then my cursor has to be reset from to where I am typing-. Every-where you see this hyphen is a time when-the screen flickered/flashed and I had to replace the cursor - to continue typing. This happens across the computer- Safari, Mes-sages, etc.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Mac Cursor Flickering between states https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_0ohhGjuyI I have had this cursor flickering bug for years but now it has just gotten ridiculously bad. Its distracting and looks ridiculous. It only happens on my iMac, not my MacBook. Even iMacs in Apple Stores do this. Why has Apple still not fixed this?

cursor disappearing randomly Hello Everyone, I have an early 2015 13 inch macbook pro with an intel core i5 processor running Mojave version 10.14.6 and lately I've been having a minor recurring issue with my cursor. Sometimes when I open a program installed on my computer or open a new window, my cursor will randomly disappear for anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes. As of right now my temporary solution is hitting the power button to put it in sleep mode and turn it back on again and this usually is working for me as the cursor will often reappear. However, I just wanted to know what might be causing this issue and if its something wrong with the hardware or just a glitch in the software. Thank you and I look forward to hearing back from you all.

Slow loading and keyboard lag in MacBook Air (Retina, 13-inch, 2018) Using Mac OS Monterey 12.4. The Safari tabs are slow to load and move slowly sometimes freezing. Refresh sometimes helps, sometimes not The keyboarding is quixotic, both in emails and in word documents. Sometimes there is a considerable lag between the typing and when the characters appear. The cursor moves around and suddenly I am inputting text far from the place I intended. I have an EtreCheck report but do not know how to paste it without exceedint the 5000 character limit. Where is the "additional text feature"?
