For starters, file bugs for the crashes with backtraces (or at least post the backtraces here). It may offer some clues.

Based on https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/15/html/Deployment_Guide/generat... I dnf installed abrt, but it produced no man page or menu entry I could find. Then I dnf installed abrt-gui & abrt-cli & abrt-applet & their deps. Only menu entry produces window with no problems detected in either tab.
This is a recent coredump from trying to use systemsettings -> workspace theme which is now crashing instead of black windowing: http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/F/core.systemsettings5-t2240-f28.lz4

I cannot access that url:
You don't have permission to access the requested object. It is either read- protected or not readable by the server.
Though I don't think the raw coredump will help me much honestly.
You try running things through gdb directly, for example: gdb systemsettings
and wait for it to crash, then issue command: thread apply all bt

So, that all looks pretty bad, as if something very seriously wrong on this system.
First major problem:
QOpenGLShader: could not create shader video driver isn't functioning properly

never seen that before, but if kernel calls are failing preventing debugging, there's not much we can do.
May be worth trying a fresh/clean f28 live image, and see how that works for you on this system. If better, may be worth re-installing.

On the PC it happened on instead of fresh install I restored a partition image from one of the several F27>F28 upgrade "successes". Plasma is exceedingly lethargic on a single core 2.8GHz P4 with 1G RAM and compositing unable to be disabled[1]. It's producing a black systemsettings window simply opening it:
