Please write here info from LibreOffice's Help-About dialog like (use Copy button there)

and say us what Linux distro do you use?

I have no that problem in Xubuntu 20.04
Comment 3 Mathias Schindler 2021-09-11 10:26:39 UTC 
The distribution is Ubuntu 21.10, but the rendering issues appear on another computer running Ubuntu 21.04 as well.

Checking OpenCL does not change the issue.

Comment 7 Mathias Schindler 2021-09-20 12:59:29 UTC 
I would like to clarify that apparently this behaviour applies to the Libreoffice version supplied by snap in Ubuntu (https://snapcraft.io/libreoffice).

Having installed Libreoffice via apt, the rendering is fine.
