Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.
Yes, Dolphin 5.0-14298.
Is the issue present in the latest stable version?
N/A, Dolphin 5.0 does not support Vulkan.
If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)
This goes as far back as Dolphin 5.0-9708, the first version with Vulkan selectable as a backend on macOS.
If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too.
