For some reason, Ubuntu keeps freezing at random times. Sometimes i will come back from being afk and it will be frozen, other times it with freeze when I am loading an application. Even if the freezes correspond to my resource usage, I still have ample resources to be running vscode, discord, and opera at the same time. Every post I've found either has no solution or a solution that doesn't apply to me. Every time it freezes, I am forced to manually shutdown my computer which will eventually start to degrade my hardware. Additionally, this is my whole computer not just gnome, so trying to access the gnome terminal to reload doesn't work.

Edit: In the 20 minutes after posting this question, my computer froze 3 more times. If I don't find a fix soon, I'm f*cked.

Fixed the freezing issue by ditching ubuntu and switching to a far more stable operating system, windows 10.
