    Horrible bluetooth input lag 12.6

    So.. yeah. Basically the title. Ever since the 12.6 Monterey update, my magic keyboard and trackpad are laggy as hell. Except when I plug them in, then it's fine. So it has to be bluetooth right? My wired mouse is 100 percent solid. Anyone else with this issue? I'm on a 2020 iMac if that matters..
