Wayland Broken After Update

Greetings to everyone!
I’ve been using Garuda Dr460nized Gaming edition since a month now and I love it. I have been a linux user (half of the time using arch) for over 2 years now so i have some knowledge about using arch.

10 days ago I enable the wayland and it was working fine. I used to switch back to x11 when necessary, for example when playing certain games or coding.

Now, just 6 -7 days ago I updated my system and guess what! Wayland is broken. I was in x11 while updating and after one day of the update as i switched to wayland, its laggy as hell and none of the apps work as great as they used to. I mean they still work but not as good.

Any help is appreciated.

P.S. I’ve updated my system once more after that and now I’m running the latest Linux-6.6.7-zen-zen1-zen kernel.

Here’s the inxi :-
