happens mainly when using browsers?
pacman -Qs desktop-portal
I also wonder about foreign packages…
pacman -Qm
Browsers (librewolf and firefox) are always open on my machine, besides a couple electron apps, so I wouln’t know.
I have quite a lot of packages installed:

Which version of gnome-shell did you compile? 44.1 or 44.2?
So … another candidate for the known-issues of xdg-desktop-portal-gnome I guess?
Then also you have a lot of deprecated packages.
They seem ‘foreign’ but are probably actually entirely missing from repos and aur.
… so … um … you should probably have a look at all of those.
I have created a new user and used it for a while with no problems. I’ll try to migrate to a new user account.
or so …
I’ve deinstalled these:
manjaro-documentation-en 20181009-1
manjaro-dynamic-wallpaper 1.3-1
manjaro-firmware 20160419-1
manjaro-gnome-postinstall 0.1.1-3
manjaro-gnome-tour 3.38.0+31+gdf1ba86-1
python35 3.5.10-3
python36 3.6.15-5
python37 3.7.16-1
python38 3.8.16-3
Since I work with python quite extensively (been working with python since 2002), I was using the older versions at some point in time.
I’m not sure deinstalling xdg-desktop-portal-gnome would make a difference.
On any other Gtk desktop besides GNOME, you should only have xdg-desktop-portal-gtk. Since we are apparently talking about GNOME, you should have xdg-desktop-portal-gnome installed.
Despite the initial report affecting non-gnome desktops … I think we have seen the bug negatively impacting gnome DE users as well, if I’m not mistaken.
Im not sure anymore and theres too many to go back sifting through. I suppose it remins ‘worth mentioning’.
I went ahead and reported this bug on Arch bugs: FS#78720 : Frequent coredumps from gnome-shell
Update: my bugreport was denied, “because I’m not an Arch user”. I guess I’ve hit a dead end here.
@ehb00, if you could make another bugreport, that would be appreciated.

For me Gnome won’t start at all. After login, I get the “Oh no! Something has gone wrong” screen. I’ve logged in with Plasma to see the journal and it looks like gnome is throwing core dumps during start.
Logging in with a new user is possible, though. But I hope some fix comes through so I don’t need to recreate my normal user.
I’d rather get to the bottom of this problem, as I have a huge amount of stuff installed (I use this desktop to work and I do a lot), and moving everything over to another user would
- either result in the same problems because of moving everything over
- cost so much time it wouldn’t be worth it.
When I moved entire ~/.config to ~/.config.bak I was able to log in, just like with a new user. So the culprit seems to be located somewhere in ~/.config.
EDIT: the thing causing problems for me was ~/.config/dconf/user. I’m gonna purge that and recreate my Gnome settings.
EDIT 2: well, gnome is still throwing core dumps and restarting on some occasions, but at least I can use the system.
Yep, I’ve filed a bug report on Arch now too (FS#78723, can’t embed a link currently) with debugging symbols for the coredump.

I found this Title bar becomes transparent and other glitches from an XWayland window (#2725) · Issues · GNOME / mutter · GitLab
@ehb00, my comments get deleted on the arch linux bugtracker so I’m gonna ask my question here. It seems I’m not a “sacred arch user”, and I’m not allowed to comment there. This zealotry is very counter-productive but so be it.
which commit did you use that fixed the issue for you? I’ve downgraded to commit d5abf1b1ba3209b167efac5bf531193dd3d91b85 (tag: 1.8.3-6) and I just had another crash, with about the same logs.
It seems the culprit is now found:
