To me, it's more that there aren't as many problems as people are saying, and the improvements are being ignored.

Yes, inflation is up considerably. But unemployment is way done, over 6 million jobs were added last year, consumer spending is up, and so are wages.
We're finally out of a 20 year war. Yes, it handled poorly, and you can blame Biden for that. But it's done.
We had a huge COVID relief bill pass. We had a long overdue, bi-partisan infrastructure bill pass all while having the slimmest majority in the senate possible.
Biden has confirmed more judges than Trump did his first year.
He was strong about vaccine mandates even when it hurt his approval rating.
Why anyone expected Voting Rights Acts, or the BBB plan to pass with such a slim majority is beyond me. Altered version of those things can get through, but they'll need to be altered to appease 10 Republicans.
There are certainly valid criticisms of him as President, and his own PR as you said, is one of them, but he's being judged too harshly, imo.
