Describe the bug
VSCodium randomly goes blank when I switch to Discord, Chrome or any other window that is maximised. Have to open a new instance to get a display again.

Please confirm that this problem is VSCodium-specific

• This bug doesn't happen if I use Microsoft's Visual Studio Code. It only happens in VSCodium.

Please confirm that the issue/resolution isn't already documented

• I checked the Docs page and my issue is not mentioned there.

Screenshots

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 10
• Architecture: x64
• Version: 1.41.1

Additional context
I'm still able to click buttons but I can not see them.

Same here. Currently experiencing this issue with the same specs. I need to re-open codium just to make it work again. But still, after re-opening, the issue persist after some time it was being open.

I'm still awaiting an update on the status of the issue. I don't truly recognise what is happening in the code so I can't make a fork and make a hotfix. I'll try to work on it but not sure how much progress I'll make.

just fire some updates whenever you have any findings.
thanks.

Potentially a duplicate of #296 ?

I provided a lot more information, plus it isn't related to the amount of windows open on my desktop but instead the fact I'm switching between windows that are maximised. Haven't tested with windowed applications.
Edit: I read that one first before posting this and I'm quite sure it isn't the same issue. If it is I pardon the inconvenience.
