Laggy and buggy window resizing in Cinnamon and other bugs

Hi there everyone, recently ever since I started using the Cinnamon spin of Manjaro on my main desktop, immediately one problem I’ve instantly noticed is resizing windows can be extremely laggy especially on applications such as Firefox while tabbed onto a Youtube video page. Other sites such as Twitter can make the system freeze up for a split second as I scroll through my feed as well. Everything else however like games seem to have no issues, it’s specifically window resizing that causes this lag

I’ve tried other various Cinnamon spins like Garuda’s take on the DE that doesn’t have this laggy window resizing problem, albeit it has a couple of its own little quirks. I’ve tried various kernels, refresh rates, etc and I seemingly haven’t found what’s causing this problem. There is also a couple of smaller faults like highlighting a category in my menu can cause the highlight graphic to jitter and stutter, specifically when watching a Twitch stream, as well as my bluetooth and pamac notifications have their dialogue boxes go beneath the screen when hovering over them.

Definitely a little stumped here and not quite sure what else I can do on my own.

Just a bump to say I recorded a quick video to demonstrate my problem with laggy window resizing if it helps anyone figure out what the problem might be.

I’ve made some progress, turns out the on-screen keyboard was causing the lag when resizing windows so I ended up disabling that completely. However the slow “re-drawing” of the windows upon resizing is an issue that annoyingly still persists.
