Downloaded the new launcher and now I'm experiencing serious lag in-game.
Aarows don't fly, food glitches on way to mouth, pick ups have lag. The game is broken.
You broke Minecraft during the sad holiday time of the year.

This tracker isn't a tech support forum, but the issue may well have to do with the new launcher not importing profile settings correctly.
If you've ever used the 'JVM arguments' option in the old launcher to increase the amount of RAM allocated to the game, the new launcher doesn't import this setting and resets it to the default 1GB, which may be the cause of the lag issues. Try checking this option in the new launcher (should be under 'more options' on the installation settings).
Thank you for your report!

Performance drops are expected to happen between versions, especially in snapshots. Simply stating that "My game is laggier" is not helpful for Mojang to diagnose your issue. If you can pinpoint a specific cause when lag happens for you, please open a new report for that specific issue. If you think this might be a hardware issue please contact Community Support as they might be able to help with your issue.
Keep in mind that Mojang is constantly optimizing the game and simply playing the game provides feedback to Mojang on which parts cause performance issues. To learn more about this, head here (section "Telemetry") for more information.
