Gotta be something specific to your machine - for me version 6 is way more stable than 5 was. That line would crash doing sillies things like resizing task bar or applying settings. Now I feel as good with CachyOS and Plasma 6.5.2 as I was

I've bought Frame as well because our 10 years old Philips tv got a nasty dead pixels bar mid screen that made watching tv really annoying - prob moisture got inside. I was curious how Samsung's ecosystem looks like in comparison
