The timeline as the broswer suffers from some serious click drag lags from time to time.
And recently in this part I was not even able to move parts where I wanted them to go to.

The video link you provided has expired. Nevertheless, I tried your file and found only normally expected delays that occur while Fusion re-calculates the timeline.

This video shows the testing. I dragged all the Base Feature nodes to the beginning of the timeline. At the end of each drag, there is a couple of seconds where the machine pauses to calculate the timeline.
Note: You can also see in the video that Screencast is taking more than 100% of the CPU. Without Screencast, the pause to calculate is only about a second. This is an old, weak MacBook Pro with only 4 GB RAM, and a 512 MB video card. So poor performance is built in. 🙂 Please let me know if you think this is still a problem, specifically the lag time for calculations.
As for not being able to drag timeline nodes: Sometimes Fusion prevents this because of timeline dependencies. Some features cannot exist prior to the body they affect. So each feature may have an "envelope" in which it can be dragged, but not prior to that frame of events. Any lag during dragging is related to graphics, so a very complex model with many faces may have performance problems while you are actually dragging the nodes in the timeline. After you drop them, there is only the compute cycle. If you have any examples where this is not true, please share them. Thanks for your help with Fusion!

that certain limitations are there makes sense - but I noticed that this is not always the case and a feature should be able to be moved and refuses to.

I posted this August last year and since then cleared out my designs and video recordings.
When I see it again I will send it to you via email.
