I've switched off anything that could be graphics related like windows fading in / out when minimize / maximized, etc and it still randomly happens, the whole KDE crashes killing every single application.
I've tried switching back to X11, but X11 seems to be completely dysfunctional, only my wallpaper loads and desktop icons, but nothing else KDE related.
I'm submitting crash reports every 1-2 hours, hopefully these arrive at the right place.
In the meantime, what can I do to make my system stable again, maybe there's a known workaround?
I'm not keen to wipe the system and switch distros again
EDIT: I've managed to reproduce the issue, not sure if this application related or Wayland related

EDIT2: Some syslogs around the time things crashed
EDIT3: Some logs from /var/log/kern.log
