Pamac Update Manager causes the system to freeze

If it helps:
Turn off auto updates, including flatpak & AUR.
Restart your box.
Run pamac and manually check for updates and if there are no updates then clear the cache on exit.
Restart your machine and turn on autoupdates. (I think I turned on flatpak & AUR after things worked first)

The problem does not persist in my desktop. That’s what seems to have happened to me.
I will mark this as my solution.
