I also noticed Element (matrix client) also would crash. The only thing these applications have in common is electron. I was hoping this would get noticed by someone and that the issue would be figured out, but I guess that person had to be me. Erroneously-filed bug 1943568 exhibits the same issues.

Report Id: Illegal instruction (core dumped) When either application was provided "--no-sandbox" at the command line, they would run normally. However, Element does not pass that via command line, so I was unable to use the workaround for that. Upon investigating the runtime dependencies for Element, Atom, and VSCode, the one thing they had in common was libgtk-3-0, and the date of 2021-09-03 for publishing coincides with the time in which these errors started to appear. Another workaround, other than the "--no-sandbox" usage, is to use the snap version of the apps if available, or flatpak. These provide their own versions of these dependencies, which tells me these .deb-based applications are affected by libgtk-3-0. Granted, those applications are not in the Ubuntu repository, however, many people (including myself) rely on those to function correctly. It would be very bad if Electron apps failed to function when 21.10 is released.
