Hi,

I am using fzf.vim in neovim. When I start fzf by :Files and then move the cursor up and down, there are two abnormal flashing things (GIF attached below). One is a flashing cursor on the right-hand side (i.e., the preview part) of the fzf window. Another flashing is the number column (on the leftmost, like the line number) of the fzf window.

I encounter this issue in some different terminals (Alacritty, kitty, iTerm2, Terminal.app).

Thank you very much.

Update:
I also reported this issue in kitty (kovidgoyal/kitty#2807 (comment)) and got the author's reply for your reference. Thanks.

I have the same issue on wsl/debian inside the "Windows Terminal" program and on the default terminal for debian, tested on linux with xterm and alacritty works fine.

Any updates on this? It is just a big annoyance.
