Hi guys.

Lately, I'd say for ~1 month, my Chrome has been really
misbehaving even to the point when becomes unresponsive and
I have to kill it.
Chrome shows log full of things , with:
-> $ google-chrome --enable-logging --v=1
of which most worrying are:
...

This implicates "vulcan", which AMD claims to support. You should look for other "amdgpu"

versions. Report the issue at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-amdgpu/-/issues/

Wayland is said to work better than Xorg with amdgpu, but laptop hybrid graphics are problematic

(every vendor does it differently).
