I'm squishier than I was before, and my DPS is lower too. Bear DPS feels way down. I've been doing most of my dungeon solos in resto spec to keep the pace up, but I definitely can't do brain dead runs so easily anymore.
Didn't feel great at first, but in a way I almost prefer it this way, I think. After the enchant and gem update a few months ago, things were feeling mind numbingly easy. I can still do all the same content so far (not counting Shadowlands scaling bugs).

yes, I still can do them with my HD and pally, but it's definitely more difficult now, the mobs simply hit harder and my dps output is lower

Mobs have more HP -1st boss of RFC went from 25K to 33K or something-, we have less HP, primary stats and secondaries while leech is nerfed.
I'm not sure mobs hit that much harder but tbh when compared to SL soloing TWW solo is a breeze our perception is just skewed from the mess that was DF gear and our previous ability to melt bosses sometimes under 15 seconds
So far I could solo on just about any class -mage and rogue need SL healing gems tho- and I've not been in that much trouble. DK is a bit tougher now especially in DPS specs, Arms soloing requires Ignore Pain but Prot is still a faceroll, Druid and Shaman are still broken, Hunter needs to be careful to aggro and heal pet and Warlock is still very good (still easier than in SL), DH and Monk are still solid, Pally always have and always will be reliable with their toolkit, Priest is still very decent although still hard carried by https://www.wowhead.com/spell=45243/focused-will . Haven't tried Evoker but I would assume their natural tankiness, self-healing and decent damage with good mobility makes them quite the solid class.
That said while you'll find soloing is still fairly easy, mass farming will take much longer than in DF which -in my opinion- makes getting those socket + speed slots not worth the grind.

Ooze is less powerful now, still works but not as good as before especially in later expansion contents such as legion
Switch to DF or current timeline and it works as normal… totem is bugged tho
