Kick or Stick On The M - M5 vs M50

I have an M and M3. Have never been happy with either. Sitting in my house collecting dust because I detest the autofocus and sluggishness with adapted lenses. The M3 is particularly bad with EF/EF-S lenses.

I decided its time to move on but I am not buying the R. Its time to either stay in the M system or get out. I have 3 M lenses, 2 bodies and 1 flash. Basically a whole other system in addition to my Canon DSLR and its 4 lenses and flash.

Had the M5 from a friend for a few weeks. Was not particularly impressed with it. I shoot inside a lot and it was sluggish. Is the M50 any better?

I want to prune down to a single system be it EF/EF-S or the M.

Before I buy another M body can someone tell if the M50 is that much better than the M5?

What are the differences. Just be honest - does the M50 focus as fast as a DSLR? Tell me the pros/cons of each.
