(Just observing) I'm glad you pointed it out. I had no idea Brave was causing this; instead I assumed I had too many apps running. I'm on Fedora 36 on an Acer Laptop with an AMD A9 processor with 12GB RAM. I often have a dozen tabs open on Firefox, 2 tabs on Brave, several Writer docs, a Calc sheet, a terminal window and Wolfram Mathematica running.
When this issue occurs, I usually ended up rebooting. Next time I'll attempt to kill Brave via command line and see what happens .. if I can get to the terminal that is .. the Ctrl-Alt-T shortcut from Ubuntu doesn't work on Fedora, at least not for me yet .. maybe I can add that functionality to Fedora somehow.
