Mouse freezes on KDE wayland?

Am i the only one that had weird mouse freezing on wayland?
like in overloaded scenarios or just after some time, after closing game or just waiting a while and hovering mouse on panel and it gives freeze, x11 has no such thing, i saw this behavior generally on wayland but in kde it happens crazy many times.When youre doing things uve never done in long time, when changing mouse from app to panel, or from app to app, under some (even not heavy) loading times its even worse.
and yes its amd not nvidia

Im tired of desktop enviroments and want a wm that works like de

its not short text so if u want - go straight to help me(question) part

why and what happened?

----------------------

let me explain

i dont like what gnome does and its usecase, bcs of that im using kde or cinnamon.Cinnamon now has his libadwaita-libadapta,gtk3-gtk4, xapps, losing gtk3 customization,different design choices(buttons in windows decorations or no,round conrers or no) storm and all that is giving unpolished look, ^(i said look becouse it just works, yes if u gonna peak u wont gonna be failed in that aspect, but i want something consistant).(https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxmint/s/s1OCM4UZ7u)

KDE is indeed very feature-rich, even to the point that I don't really like it (but I can use it for sure), has bugs, like alt tab wayland stuttering which is fundamental and sireous(https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=479250), and many many other bugs*(also sireous such as file manager trash empty icon not showing properly bug,desktop files selecting noт working when hovering mouse to many items and sliding)*, im not ricing it and i cant imagine what i would have if i gonna customize it.

I also looked to lightweight ones but usually they dont have that much QoL things and need many addons*(yes i have notes what is missing and how much can i modify desktop with pros and cons)*.

I looked to lxqt, they have great features and improvements, also adding them very quickly.but theres also not much of QoL things and yep, too much tinkering for having what i want(but still i cant make what i want i think).

Also cosmic, a great thing, a mix of tiling wm and de, like it but its not quite ready(no desktop icons and even in launcher not manual sorting by dragging)

Please help me(question)

---------------------------

I want a wm that lets me to use it like classic de, without crazy keybinds focuse, with title bars and its functionality

from hotkeys i basically need alt tab and super key for showing some menu and panel

so please help me find wm that will let me use it like that, and without tinkering

i know they are tiling wms that also had that functionality but i dont wonna do it from scratch and breaking something or fixing when something is broken,

but i discovered Preconfigured setups and dots for hyperland,which are basically already made setups/configs for hyperland, like DEs but without bloat and lightweight, thats so cool but i need ones with traditional usecase, keyboard mouse

so pls help me recommending some wm's or Preconfigured setups/dots that will be usable for me

Cinnamon doesn't give me the level of stability that I chose it for.Im tired

Ive changed my DE from KDE to Cinnamon for having much more stable and bugfree enviroment but recent things that ive faced are so bad in terms of usablility
Recently that ive installed a Cinnamon i had a bug that doesnt let me play games
If ure changing a system input language after launching a game then game will not recognize your input at all.
Its a crazy critical tbh

and ive found a fix for it and done it(basically not Linux mint level of user friendliness)
source: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=462517 , https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon/issues/13369

Then today ive decided to play uncharted 4 and in there selected a language that im most familiar with but expect for Keybinds to show in English and it doent want to let me have them in english(pic 1)(pic 2 for proove that ive set everyhing to Russian).Ive done everything,closing game changing to english then relaunch.Done the same method that helped me previous(changing from IBus to XIM) still doesnt help, changing game language back and forth expecting it to be a bug but still no help, no any way helped me.

Then i just loaded Linux mint xfce and even in live usb mode loaded that same game and YES its not showing me nonEnglish voice/text but english keybinds as it should be(pic 3)(pic 4 for proove that ive set everyhing to Russian).
so i mean i loved cinnamon but rn it had some weird bugs and im not ready to go with it when im chosing stable enviroment
i can use KDE

again for those who doesnst understand, pic 1 with russian keys(cinnamon) pic 3 with English keys(xfce)

Hypervisor can work under Linux and it can be easier then windows?HEAR ME OUT

So technically Denuvo is already working under Linux(which is already miracle to me)
and technically it is working under Proton/Wine, which is completely opensource and ready for some modification
Kernel itself is also open and technically theres nothing that does not let u making it workin
am i right?

Now I get Gnome design, its so bad on small screens

Gnome in general feels gigantic, so much useless empty spaces
shouldnt it have some sort of scaling? and no its not kde design moment bcs Cosmic being a Gnome like then KDE has choice for it
bcs if gnomes gigantic desighn i cant even consider it to try someday
