Windows are causing microstutters after -Syu on Gnome

Hiya everyone,

Did a -Syu last monday and after a reboot moving the mouse in certain windows causes micro stutters and freezes. It happens with windows for terminal, file explorer, settings and firefox but not with Steam, Legcord (discord), Freetube, Lutris (to name a few).

The stutters and freezes are system wide; I can see videos or games getting impacted when moving the mouse in the aforementioned windows on both my main and extended screen. It does not matter if I have multiple windows open or just one.

Tried to find a solution myself but can only find things about stuttering on Xorg with plasma, nothing on Gnome. Would like to fix it without reinstalling endeavour with a different DE.

Does anyone have any idea why this happens and possibly how to fix it?

Cheers!

Did a reinstall of EOS twice; once with xfce4, but as I didn’t like it out of the box I reinstalled GNOME and the problem persist, making me believe that the issue is with a GNOME update than something else. Guess I’ll have to wait for a fix.
