Weird issues after re-installing Fedora Workstation

I re-installed Fedora Workstation and updated it to the latest version. I’m running on Wayland.

  1. On the login screen I couldn’t type my password in because it contained a " symbol and it was impossible to make that character (or any of the other characters using the numbers and right shift) so I had to use the visual keyboard. While logged in the keyboard worked as normal. Keyboard input is Swedish and Swedish only.
    ---- SOLUTION: I ran localectl status in terminal and it showed US layout so I ran sudo localectl set-keymap se and now it worked on the login page

  2. YouTube videos are now all of a sudden laggy and choppy. Especially when moving around in the video. Haven’t seen any solutions to this.
    — SOLUTION: I followed these instructions and now it seems to work well Howto/Multimedia - RPM Fusion

  3. I installed Vitals extensions and even though I have set it to only monitor RAM and CPU temp for me it’s still showing other icons in the top bar.
    —SOLUTION: I just randomly added a bunch of new things to monitor for the top bar then removed them and that seems to have refreshed it or done something so now I only have the icons that I have chosen to monitor in the top panel

  4. I have Tweaks and Just Perfection installed and on previous Fedora Workstation installation I had to go to Tweaks and click on a JustPerfection button in that window to access those settings because if I searched for Just Perfection nothing showed up. This time Just Perfection isn’t showing up anywhere so I have to go to the extension website and enter the settings from there.
