Lock up problem (lemmy.world)

Hi guys, been having a problem for a week now in fedora 43.

After half an hour of light use, my kde keyboard starts crashing at regular intervals, the taskbar is unresponsive, and the shutdown greeter will crash if i try to restart or shut down. I have to power cycle the system to turn it off, not the best.

Looking for anyone also experiencing the problem has not yielded any hits, so I'm posting here 😅

Thus far i have tried: -Restarting -Disabling Firefox video decoding (closest fix i could find in searches) -Rolling back to my previous Friday backups

The issue persists 😓

I don't know enough about Linux to troubleshoot the problem effectively 😅

Just to close out this thread...

The diagnostics didn't reveal anything problematic.

I reinstalled fedora.

Problem is gone. If it returns, I'll post a reply here.
