I seem to be having a DNS issue on Fedora 34? Reaching certain websites takes forever but others work fine.

I don't know what is relevant so I will try to include everything.
Installed Fedora 34 workstation on an SATA Intel SSD. CPU is a Ryzen 2700x, board is an MSI Tomahawk Max, Realtek chipset RTL8111/8146/8168.
Started noticing network issues as soon as I fired up Firefox.The starting page never fully finished loading and any attempt to open other pages just resulted in spinning circles. No worries, I just installed Chromium via the terminal and it opened just fine.
From then on it was just up and down. The Software Manager loads about as quickly as you would expect it to. Installing Brasero, Pitivi, and most other software went smoothly. To install VLC, however, I had to install rpmfusion repositories. That took a while.
Now, through trial and error, I have updated my Kernel (idk ) and tracked one decent Realtek driver that refuses to install. Still though, according to all the research I have done any kernel past 5.9 is supposed to support that chipset.
The last detail that I have is that it seems like websites hosted on the Amazon Web Service seem to be the most affected. I can ping out just fine. (As far as I know. I don't have that many website IPs memorized.) Pinging still is more effective than trying to open the website in the browser. As nearly as I can tell, anything in the Google family and most of the smaller (perhaps) privately hosted websites. Sadly not this one. This one did not load and I had to make my post on Mac. The irony.
