everytime i open photoshop and dragging a photo in it just like that is ridiculous. Sometimes it says insufficient ram but I've been using it for the last 2 years. This kind of nonsense is wasting my time and money!
What I see in your video looks like a GPU issue.
First, try disabling GPU in the preferences (Performance tab). Any better? If not, go to Preferences > Technology Previews... and check "Disable Native Canvas" - then restart Photoshop. Better? If not, recalibrate and build a new ICC display profile; the old one might be corrupted.

Which (exact) version of Photoshop and OS?
How much RAM and spare hard disk capacity do you have?
If you're having issues with the way the graphics are displaying, see if unchecking Use Graphics Processor found under the Performance tab in Photoshop preferences helps.

Sorry to hear this @The Rational Observer,
Let's make sure we're in a default state and there are no stale settings somewhere:

Does it work correctly?
If that doesn't solve it, you can quit Photoshop and put the Settings folder back.
It may help if we could see your Photoshop System Info. Launch Photoshop, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.
Thank you,
