Description
This from journalctl --user:
Nov 19 23:32:10 red Keybase[1238]: browser window crashed
Nov 19 23:32:11 red systemd[2061]: keybase.gui.service: Main process exited, code=dumped, status=5/TRAP
Nov 19 23:32:11 red systemd[2061]: keybase.gui.service: Failed with result 'core-dump'.
Nov 19 23:32:11 red gnome-shell[2260]: Object .Gjs_AppIndicatorIconActor__1 (0x55a1ff01c1f0), has been already finalized. Impossible to set any property to it.
Alas, the following happened when sending logs (really helpful):
▶ INFO ignoring UI logs: GUI main process wasn't found
