It’s a known bug from upstream mutter. A fix is being worked on and there’s a PPA with the updated packages by the Ubuntu developer working on the fix. It resolved the problem on my end.

    You said it wasn’t fine. Now you’re saying it is?

    I started “experiencing input delay / lag in GNOME” since I first used it. It’s normal, every thing you click or type requires a 2s animation to show up, usually rendered with CSS themes. lol

    So am I to understand that your complaint about Gnome has changed from “I have severe performance issues and input lag, even using a desktop i7” to “minimising has a 0.2 second animation, just as practically every other UX has, and rather than just turn it off, I’m going to argue with people about it online and call the entire project removed

      No it hasn’t. My complaints about GNOME have expanded a bit, just that. The UI is definitely slower than let’s say Xfce and to make things even worse adds pointless animations.

      and rather than just turn it off

      That’s the issue, you can’t turn off ALL Gnome animations, there’s a toggle on settings that reduces about 90% of the nonsense but you’ll still get some animations.

        Yes it has. First you say the performance is bad and typing is delayed, then you say that’s not the case.
