I just had my AMD-based machine crash - repeatedly - every time I tried to use Google Maps inside Firefox for longer than a few minutes. I haven't confirmed, but I strongly assume that either their graphics drivers or something Ubuntu does with Wayland are not fine.

To be fair, you have group the perfect combo for initiating a crash, a google product inside firefox inside linux desktop on wayland.

  Of these only Linux kernel is the thing that can take down the whole machine.

    On a desktop machine, there isn't a huge difference between a kernel and a Wayland crash. Either way I lost all my state and will end up rebooting. In this specific case, I was unable to get to a console and had actual things to get done so I wasn't going to debug it.

Seems like a Wayland problem to me. Under X, AMD drivers have been nothing but rock solid for years.
