I do none of these things either. I mostly ride gravel on mine.

120mm front, 100mm back with full lockout.

Before I bought it I tried Spur, Oiz TR, Top Fuel, and Lux. All had the same issues: flexed AF, extremely low stack, and stupid shallow seat tube angles (seat behind rear axle at full extension in size XL). I find that the more traditional XCish bikes don't scale up very well across sizes.

I wonder if it’s a full sus issue, my hardtail is xl and as traditional as they come and the seat is nowhere near over the axle.
Phil is probably right, I should just improve this so it has what I want

Long legs, actual shallow seat angle, and sag will do that. Didn't have that problem on a hardtail either.
What do you ride right now?
