1LinuxGuy what do you think it is that's causing Ubuntu's distribution of GNOME Shell to take up more RAM/CPU? What change in the Pop!_OS PPA do you think is making it work better for them? The different GTK theme? As Sebastien Bacher says, do you get the same bug on Ubuntu's vanilla GNOME session (use `sudo apt install gnome-session` then log into the session since that uses Adwaita instead of Ambiance/Radiance?).
