PS4 Input Lag?

Hi, y'all. Returning inexperienced player here. As you can see by the title, I'm on PS4 and I love the way the game plays on console. I miss my PC add-ons, but I'll survive. Haha.
Here's my problem:
I've noticed an insane amount of input lag. It's not always even lag - sometimes it's just that the input doesn't register.
1 - I walk up to a barrel and press X to get the mats out of it, but nothing happens. Sometimes I have to press X three or four times.
2 - Bar swap doesn't register. I'm not in an animation and it isn't GCD. It just doesn't seem to register until the third button press sometimes.
3 - Light attack weaving. My spammable (I think it's poison arrow? Not in-game so can't say for sure) has a 1-second cast time. I've tried endlessly to time my light attack weaving, but sometimes it just doesn't work.
In other words, there are times when it seems like I haven't pressed a button at all.
I've tried several things to fix this. My PS4 is hardwired to the modem and my internet is over 100mbps, so that isn't the problem. I've tried three different controllers. (All three work well with other games, too.)
Anyone else have this issue, and is there something else I can try other than sucking it up, losing my purchases, and moving back to PC?

✭It has been very bad lately on ps4 for nearly everyone. Nothing you can do except wait for another "performance update".3 -

Thanks, man. For the record, and for anyone who sees this, switching my TV to PC mode made a big difference. There's still some input lag here and there, but it's definitely better. I don't know why I didn't think to do that. 🤦♀️1 -
