You need to provide more information regarding your issue. Does it boot up at all? You need to provide more useful insight, which increases the chances of you receiving some help. Also, are you on the stable branch? What desktop do you use? What symptoms is your machine showing? Do you have more than one LTS kernel installed? If not, you need to do that, once your system is fixed.
I would suggest you look in the newbie section for answers first, based on the symptoms. If you don’t find a suitable answer, then post.
All the best.

PS - Okay, I see on your profile you are a KDE user on Stable branch. I hope you find a solution soon. Go well.
Prior to latest update, I have noticed a major decrease in performance with Xwayland and Xorg apps.
Gnome theming is also broken under Xorg, but I mostly use Wayland, so that is not much of an issue.
For the performance decrease, it impacts both my Workstation and my laptops, including my ASUS Vivobook ( AMD A-12 [quad-core @ 2.9GHz], Radeon R7, 8GB DDR4 RAM, 1TB HDD [5400RPM]).
It is indeed a Xorg specific issue, but it does not urge, or is it important. Rolled back Xorg and everything works fine.
I am using the 455 driver with kernel 5.9, so the driver seems operational for me so far. (see my post above - point4)
(Your mileage may vary if you use a different card as mine)
I’m not sure whether it was xorg or kernel related - maybe none of both. There haven’t been any further xorg updates, and after updating the kernel things are back to normal on my side…
These “interim” updates (the kernel, I guess - I’ve been on 5.9 for a while now) appear to have fixed the Bluetooth issues resulting from the previous major update.
Headset and speakers are again connecting straight away without having to manually do so after having restarted the Bluetooth service as well (otherwise failed to connect). Seems there have been Bluetooth stack issues for a little while, until now.
Simultaneous Bluetooth A2DP and file transfer now working again.
Great stuff and a relief to have audio working properly even if it’s only been a few days. Thanks to all involved.
Is anyone else finding the new Javascript engine in Firefox is much slower than before?
I’m finding it so sluggish that I’ve downgraded to 82 and the improvement is immense.
I haven’t noticed any performance issues with the new firefox. Are you having issues with particular sites?
I typically have at least 20 and more typical 40-60 tabs open at any given time and firefox if anything has been getting faster over the past several updates. Sometimes clearing out all the cache can help clear up performance issues, I typically do that once every couple of months whether it needs it or not as a kind of “maintenance”.
Also do you have any custom settings enabled/disabled in the about:config.
