older chromebook users

have you ever noticed after almost every chrome os update things keep crashing

i use a lot of PWAs for sites and after every update over past year all PWAs crash when i'm inside chrome doing other things

open the task manager and "end process" for google assistant utility worker < even though i have assistant switched OFF via settings that process always starts up after i switch chromebook of/on again

the crashes still happen but not as often and they seem to ease/stop the more as i use my chromebook after each update

it's a pain in the arse

i updated ChromeOS yesterday and noticed some PWAs using 90% CPU also some have even jumped past 100% CPU

i am keeping an eye on this
