Describe the bug
At random times after startup the browser will crash.
Sometimes extensions will crash as well.
To Reproduce

chromium)Expected behavior
It not to crash.
Environment:

Additional Notes
Running local DNS server unbound for DNS-over-TLS.
Seemed like while running OpenVPN (RiseUp VPN) it did not crash, which does edit resolv.conf, but this could have been coincidental however.
I have several extensions installed:
Chromium Web Store, cVim, Dark Reader, Decentaleyes, HTTPS Everywhere, Play with MPV, Privacy Redirect, Redirector, uBlock Origin, uMatrix.
I have tried running the browser both as default chromium and with chromium --enable-features=WebUIDarkMode --force-dark-mode --process-per-site --disable-reading-from-canvas. On the latter it seems to crash not as often/fast, but again this could just be coincidental.
Any ideas? This is a really annoying problem that renders the browser unusable.
Did it crash before? 78, for example.
I am using the same ungoogled-chromium version (79.0.3945.130) and it started doing the same thing as you describe after upgrading my system. After looking around for a long while, I found this issue on Red Hat's Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1773289. This gave me the idea of checking whether glibc had been updated and apparently, it was updated from 2.30-3 to 2.31-1, so I downgraded it back and chromium doesn't seem to crash my tabs or extensions anymore :).
(For reference, I used the following command on Arch Linux: downgrade lib32-glibc glibc and chose 2.30-3 for both.)
There's not much we can do about glibc, other than address it in platform repos. Closing as invalid here.
This is fixed in Chromium 80, it's a Chromium bug: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1025739, not a glibc bug.
https://github.com/chromium/chromium/commit/54407b422a9cbf775a68c1d57603c0ecac8ce0d7 is the fix that can be backported.
Upgrading to 80 is a better idea though.
Which I see already happened here.
