I agree. For example the Steam Deck, with the game mode Wayland compositor it's fine on the internal and external display, but if you switch to kde using its own compositor in X11 then the image doesn't seem as stable and is straining. Guess we'll see what changes in the next version of the OS when it comes since it'll be a kernel, plasma and driver update.
My treatment progress and search for solutions
arturpanteleev Interesting that we both have problems with sinuses and have patched our way though the eyestrain problems.
AGI Have you tried some medicine for sinus? I took Rinexin for some years, it took away the worst eye strain.
Can the problem be that we have to little space around our sinuses, and when our eye muscles get overworked we get the eyestrain? Just a thought.

mike No idea. I slept in the cold for a couple of nights and woke up two days ago with pain in my throat only on the left side, like a swollen lymph node, my left ear and my left eye. It hasn't subsided yet. But that is a sort of bonus on top of the normal eyestrain 
. My left eye feels more fatigued and it is more prone to turn in than normally, though. No mucus, no cold symptoms, it is more like inflammation but yeah, it's pretty much along a line from the throat to the eye, on the left only, and my left eye is the weaker one in general. Coincidence?

mike yes it is true.
I did a survey on Russian-speaking forums with eyestrain people and found a lot of these ones(with sinusitis). But a few of them had successful surgery and managed their sinusitis problem and didn't get any improvements with eyestrain
arturpanteleev Which forum it was? IXBT?
