Sorry if this has been posted before, could not find.
The update seems to have done something to my gnome I think , the them got “broken” in a few places (mainly, boxes have started appearing around apps in app meny and dock, and some gnome extensions stopped working). I think I updated after around a month, I was just getting a notification update pending and used the button in the notification to update all at once, I tried rolling back using the snapshots from a days ago but that didn’t fix the gnome issues. How to roll back?
Thanks for the help!

Try disabling all Gnome extensions and see if it is any better, then bring them back one at a time and continue to test. It is likely some of your extensions have broken when Gnome upgraded to 46.

Is there any way I can roll back to gnome 45 if 46 is the cause of breaking?
It is most likely the extensions which are the cause of breaking. Gnome considers extensions unsupported, and as such they are liable to break at every point release unless the extension’s maintainer is able to rewrite their code for compatibility with the new version.
If you switch to Ubuntu or Fedora 39, you will be able to enjoy Gnome 45 for a while longer. On Arch or Arch-based distros, Gnome 45 is gone. There is no way to bring it back that wouldn’t have undesirable consequences.
That said, I suppose the most straightforward approach would be to downgrade all packages to a point before the 46 update and then just do not update the system.

The most practical solution is remove all extensions, reboot and see if you can successfully update. You can add them back one-by-one until you find the offender.
If GNOME still misbehaves, fix it.
Not having an upgrade-able system in a rolling-release is a disaster.
