What's happening is you are running both screens at 144/120 and your 60 is gonna have vsync and screen tearing issues.

What vsync issues?

Couldn't you stop tearing with a couple lines of code? Don't swap out buffers mid-frame, very simple.

The simple solution doesn't make 144+60 look super smooth, but 120+60 should be almost perfect.

How does wayland handle the hypothetical problem of playing a 24 fps movie split across a 48hz and 60hz display?

(Hint: It’s not possible to solve correctly.)
