Tiny size indicators on high-resolution displays
I have Windows 10 and a display with a resolution of 2560x1440 and a scaling of 150%. Illustrator displays tiny size indicators. Take a look at the screenshots.
This is a long-standing problem with the scaling of the Illustrator interface. Please correct it, my eyes hurt.

v23.0.6 Freezing when opening file
Frequently Illustrator has been freezing when attempting to open recently created Illustrator files. These files can be created or modified from any recent version of Illustrator (versions for 2018 and 2019), but only seem to freeze when opened with Illustrator v23.0.6. The files seemingly will open just fine on v23.0.4 or below (I did not test every version, but I can verify that v23.0.4 works and checked on 2 versions of v22.xx.xx). The freezing occurs irregardless of the computer's operating system (Windows or Mac). It doesn't freeze on all files—but I don't know what variables are causing it. The files…

Scatter brush not able to customise after created
When I create a scatter brush and then try to customize it after I've drawn a few strokes with it the "OK" just turns blue and nothing happens when I press it. Never happened before today and I'm not doing any weird brush, just a basic leaf-looking brush. Pretty annoying since I gotta either nail it at first or create a new one again. cheers!

Phantom lines in Outline mode ("QuickDraw") at large zoom levels
Not clear this is actually GPU-related.
This bug dates back 32 years, all the way to Illustrator 1.0, when Adobe used the term "QuickDraw" to describe it. Terminology has changed, the bug has not. It has happened on every version of Illustrator, on every Mac, under every operating system.
I've sent the attached screenshots and videos in the past, no response.
The bug manifests as stray lines or incorrect vectors at certain seemingly-random resolutions.
In preview mode, in addition to above problems, (possibly a different bug), I often get sectors or areas that do not fill or redraw correctly. Sometimes…2 votes -

23.0.3 keyboard shortcuts stop working
after roughly 15 minutes of designing, my illustrator keyboard shortcuts no long work. When I select a shortcut (eg command z, or command s), I simply get a system error sound, but no action. This is true for ALL shortcuts
i am then forced to use the menu items, or restart illustrator to keep working normally.

Align distribute center doesn't work
Trying to use Align>Distribute center with Align to Selection selected - on a group of elements.
Elements arent distributed symmetrically but seem to randomly distribute, some elements very close together and others very far apart. Same issue has been repeating since updating to 23.0.1. Working on MacOS Mojave 10.14.
For example the attached 3 elements were aligned with horizontal center distribution, but the center object moved close to the left text block.

Selection Tool - not showing box when shape is selected?
When I am using the Selection Tool, it doesn't show the box it did before round the selected shape. So I can't alter the shape.
It seems to be filled in green corners exactly like the direct selection tool.
I have closed Illustrator and opened it again.
