no border patch causes weird gimp interaction

[Zerogaku]

hi this is a pretty specific and unimportant issue but, when having gimp open on a separate empty tag and swapping to it, the tag displays the same content as the previous tag. Gimp is present just can't display correctly, only when closing and opening it again, or opening it on a tag that has 1 or more windows, this happens when a compositor is enabled for some reason, i've tried both xcompmgr and picom, the issue only goes away when no border patch is disabled. is there a fix for this?

gimp opens in tag 5:
