Additional Information

https://github.com/corecoding/Vitals/wiki/Sensor-shows-%22...%22-in-menu-bar could be related since I have recently enabled the extension to show the average of the fans (It's a Dell laptop with a fan for CPU and another for GPU)

This is the downstream bug on RedHat Bugzilla containing a backtrace of the gnome-shell crash: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2250968
This is a upstream report for gnome-shell on the GNOME Gitlab: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/7142

This looks like a warning, which has been discussed in the past. What crash characteristics are you experiencing?

[MateusRodCosta]

One thing I notice is that leaving the system idle, suspending it or using it on battery mode cause it to crash, and usually gnome-shell restarts with extensions disabled.

[corecoding]

The user logs are warnings aren't causing a crash, and the crash report on bugzilla is not related to Vitals. Through the years we've had a few reports (and bugs fixed) regarding Vitals itself crashing, but this is the first I've heard of it crashing Gnome. I really don't think these two are related, especially since Vitals hasn't had a major feature update for some time.

Ok, thanks, guess I will just wait on the GNOME Shell issue
