Anybody noticing chromium crashing immediately when opening YouTube?
This seems to be a solution, delete a specific cookie after every use:

Deleting the offending YouTube cookie does the trick; I can at least open
the YouTube landing page without a chromium crash.
That whole thread is not fun to read. Simon Long fucked up big time with these fundamental switches on the desktop (KMS, Wayland, GTK+3, Mutter).
A few posts down from that link there's a description on how to change
back to Openbox which apparently solves some trouble.
Reading down in the thread there's a reference to reinstating openbox as
the window manager. My Pi4 is an older installation (still Buster) and it
is presently using openbox:
window_manager=openbox-lxde-pi
My problems did emerge after doing an incremental upgrade, but a reboot
didn't help so it looks like a library change is at least part of the
trouble.
It doesn't sound like an upgrade to Buster will do any good, at least
not yet. If anybody has more ideas please share them.
Thanks for a most helpful reply!
