Thanks for sending. Reporting to the team.

Have you added any new extensions recently? Just to confirm, did the crashing begin when updating to 1.80.113? Does it also happen when in a private window?

It has always been like this, and yeah, it doesn’t help when disabling extensions or going incognito. I believe it’s purely on the Chromium side, but because I can’t read the logs myself, I can’t troubleshoot the reason. Just by googling, I believe others have the same issue, so it could be something that RAM/CPU/whatever doesn’t work properly with Chromium, but as said, I’d like to understand what the logs say about it.

E: Disabling hardware acceleration helps a lot but doesn’t remove it completely. It’s just that to my eye streams look laggy when I disable it.
