Bug Description
I recently upgrading from Focal to Groovy, and use proprietary NVIDIA drivers with X11 with otherwise standard GNOME, but some extensions installed. I see frequently errors relating to the dash-to-dock extension which I'm not sure are related, but I also see that gnome-shell freezes up for a minute or so, and the logs have this to say: https:/
BTW this is the error from the dash-to-dock extension if relevant:
Jan 18 07:50:24 gnome-shell[10186]: == Stack trace for context 0x565369c02220 ==
Jan 18 07:50:24 gnome-shell[10186]: #0 7ffc8e0a3c00 I /<email address hidden>
Jan 18 07:50:24 gnome-shell[10186]: Object St.Bin (0x56537221ac80), has been already deallocated — impossible to set any property on it. This might be caused by the object having been destroyed from C code using something such as destroy(), dispose(), or remove() vfuncs.
however that seems to be an issue reported upstream at https:/

The error you mention is bug 1905519, but let's assume that's a different problem to the main freeze here...
Please start by uninstalling all of these extensions:

'freon@
'snap-manager@fthx'
Eliminating extensions from the equation is the first thing we need to try because extensions cause so many bugs.
