One other thing:

Mate-panel 1.26 seems to crash pretty often on my computer.

It seems already an item on github:

github.com/mate-desktop/mate-panel

wnck-applet crashes randomly since update to 1.26

It's hard to say what triggers it exactly, but opening or closing windows, opening and closing tabs in a browser as well as changing the focus of windows have all triggered it sometimes. #### MATE general version 1.26.0 #### Package version mate-panel 1.26.0-1 libwnck3 40.0-1 #### Linux Distribution Manjaro #### Link to bugreport of your Distribution (requirement) Since the Mate packages for Manjaro are taken downstream from Arch, I reported it there: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/71926

Anyone else experiencing this ?

EDIT (2021-09-18): Since I switched off 'thumbnail preview' from 'windowlist preferences' (window-switcher applet ) wnck-applet doesnt't crash anymore.
