DESCRIPTION
I'm testing KDE Plasma 6.7 beta on KDE Linux and I've noticed that animations
like minimize and maximize are not always smooth, and this is extremely
noticeable with Firefox, kde apps seem to have smooth animations but with
Firefox, you notice immediately that the animation is looking like 60hz when my
monitor is set to 144hz.
I'm using the nvidia driver that kde linux ships with which is 595.71.05
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. minimize/maximize firefox
