Question: do you ever feel like Cinnamon isn't as responsive as it could be? I was using Cinnamon (first on Linux Mint and then on Manjaro) for a few months before the release of Gnome 3.32. I've switched to Gnome 3.32 and it feels much more responsive than Cinnamon. In particular cycling windows and doing anything while a notification is being displayed. I really wish Cinnamon didn't stutter as much. It's the right amount of "desktop" I need.

IIRC Cinnamon still does compositing, so maybe you've gotten stuck on the software only path? This can happen when drivers get blacklisted for example. I use it on one of my laptops and it's been pretty smooth for me.

I sense it too - it's just sluggish enough for me to notice.
