Is anyone else experiencing yellow artifacts in white areas in Tahoe? I get them randomly in areas throughout the OS—dialog boxes, web pages, the title bar in windows, the sidebar in mail, Finder, etc. I'm literally looking at it happening right now on this MacRumors page. Below is an example of this occurring in a youtube video. I've reported it already, but I assume it won't get addressed for a few updates.

I don't see anything in the photo you uploaded and there is no video showing. Most likely a hardware issue with the GPU or internal display cable. Could also be a display driver issue. I would have Apple take a look at it either at an Apple Store or send it in for diagnostics. I haven't seen or heard about this issue anywhere else so most likely an isolated issue.

It's just a screenshot of the video. Are you saying you don't see the yellow or don't see anything at all (blank)?

It would be weird if it were a hardware issue that just suddenly presented itself when I updated to Tahoe. It's also an M-series MBP, so if it were a driver issue, I don't think I would be the only one. I thought it was mostly related to liquid glass, because that seems to be the areas most affected by it, but I wouldn't think there would be liquid glass transparency in the middle of a web page.

For further clarification, this is only on my external displays. This does not happen on the MBP's display. I've already tried swapping cables, but that didn't help.
