I don’t know if you’ve already tried this, but I’ve had weird behavior with older Pi3s when the power supplies weren’t up to snuff.
A good 5V/10A (yeah I know they only need 5A) sorted out one of mine that had a heavy load of Neopixels running on it, even though the neopixels had their own 5V supply.
I haven’t needed to get a Pi5 for any of my projects and really use them as big arduinos in certain uses (better for camera detection and remote reprogramming).

I’m the opposite, my Pi 5 is my favourite thing!

I’m glad it’s working for you. I’m wondering if my issues will be resolved in the future by firmware upgrades (also holding out for uboot updates anyway). Not giving up on it just yet.

Is there a thread or bug report about your issues? That’s definitely something you need to be active about them resolving.

You’re right. There is on the raspberry pi forums, I’ve chimed in on the past, will need to check back in with it.
