upsuper left a comment (vim/vim#19203)I did (ask LLM to) do some investigation, which suggested me to attach WAYLAND_DEBUG=1 to see some diagnose information, but weirdly when I add that env var, GVim stops crashing on the STR. It feels like some timing / race condition.

chrisbra left a comment (vim/vim#19203)and with crash you mean the process has been exited? Or is vim still running?
