Graphic artifacts around main launcher window on Linux
Since November, I have had this weird and trippy graphic bug where an inch of the surrounding desktop for the main launcher window gets attached to it like a border. It also causes the drop shadow my desktop environment adds to every window to become really thick and dark for just the main launcher window.
Screenshot included as an attachment, there are no errors from minecraft-launcher in a terminal and this error does not extend to Minecraft or any other child windows the launcher uses such as the log output window.
In case you were going to ask me: yes, this also happens in the beta version, I just chose the stable version Because it is what I had installed at the time of this bug report.
Environment
elementaryOS 5.1 "Hera"

What driver you are using?
I have added the graphics driver I am using. It is the proprietary one offered by AMD for newer GPUs on Linux.
Happens to me as well on elementary OS 5.1 Hera
GPU: Intel HD Graphics 4400
Driver: i915
Same here using win 10. It looks like small strings Around the screen. (Difficult to describe)
Using GTX 1060 3GB and swapped to another Graphicscard. Issue still there. Then I built myself a new system... worked... took GTX 1060 to the new tower.
I am having this same issue on Elementary OS
Can confirm on Intel integrated graphics and ElementaryOS.
Still having this issue with the current stable and beta versions of the launcher in elementaryOS 5.1.5 with AMDGPU 20.10 drivers.
I noticed that this is thrown in the terminal at start, I don't know if it's related.
Related elementary OS issue: https://github.com/elementary/gala/issues/244
Can be fixed by opening /usr/share/applications/minecraft-launcher.desktop and replacing
Exec=/opt/minecraft-launcher/minecraft-launcher
with
Exec=env GTK_CSD=0 /opt/minecraft-launcher/minecraft-launcher
Hi there!
Does this issue still occur on the newest version of the Launcher?
