I've noticed that my HP laptop is flickering between charging and not charging every few seconds. Does anyone know why this is happening?

First off, double-check if your charger is plugged in properly at the wall and also in your laptop. Dust in the charging port can cause issues too, so it's a good idea to clean it out! Sometimes a loose connection is the culprit.

If it's still an issue after cleaning the port, it could be a sign that your charger or battery is failing. You might want to try using a different charger to see if that helps.
