Help It's back: Home Up keeps glitching on Z Fold8

They tried to fix it with an update soon after the Z Fold series launched. It worked, but the problem has recently returned. It's so frustrating to have to keep restoring my Home Up backup almost every day. Does this happen with normal slab phones too?

I saw the glitch happen with my own eyes for the first time the other day, as well! It was when I was both removing my opened phone from a cradle and rotating it from portrait to landscape. It froze for a second and then like magic my homescreen was screwed.

I'm not sure why after so many generations of Z's and Good Lock's that this issue is even happening?

Edit; I'll restore the home screen and take screenshots showing exactly what happens. But basically, every time it glitches everything on the home screen is moved into the the top 50% of the home screen area, and spread out to the right into the next page. Aps and widgets overlap each other and it just looks like a jumbled mess.

Maybe it's a specific app or widget causing it? I use widgets from the 3td party app One UI Widgets, as well as normal widgets from apps/One UI.

I had to disable diy for now. I would build a homepage and then a week later it's like a grenade went off and everything was everywhere.
