I bought a 2020 MacBook Pro 13in in late june of last year. In october, I started noticing these weird lines on the screen when I was working. It was sudden (I blinked and they appeared). External monitor works fine. Any ideas?

did you run your macbook under stress and have heat built up? Many 2016-2018 Macbook Pros have the problem where the Display board with the t-con unit couldn’t withstand high heat and start to fail. My macbook included. I had to constantly keep my macbook cool to avoid horizontal lines.
