this was fixed with Fixed brief layout shift of elements (one or two frames) when navigating back to the library section.

spoke a bit too soon it seems, you can still trigger this if you do the open/close sequence enough times in a row (~10). probably worth re-opening this

Can no longer reproduce this one after a recent beta which mentioned the gaming mode footer flickering/disappearing being fixed.
