It appears you also have extension '<email address hidden>' enabled. Please start by deleting all local extensions:
cd ~/.local/ share/gnome- shell
rm -rf extensions
and then log in again and tell us if the leak still happens. If you find the leak is still happening then please run:
ps auxw | grep gnome-shell > psout.txt
and attach the resulting text file here.
Please also note there is still a major leak in 22.04 known to be caused by screenshots: bug 1973638
