I've tried both switching to Ubuntu on wayland and I installed kernel
5.3-rc3 and there hasn't been any change.
I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be seeing in the terminal window when I
run dmesg -w but here is a screenshot of part of the output. Nothing gets
added to the output when the flickering happens if that is what you wanted
me to look at.
