This bug also occurs when staying in one of the voice channels on
Discord for prolonged periods of time.

There is something interesting I've noticed about this bug though, it
only occurs on X11 Display Server, it never occurred when I used the
Wayland Display Server. So maybe this bug could also be a bug in the X11
Display Server?

I would also recommend testing this bug in different Desktop
Environments as well, just to be sure if this is just gnome-shell 3.x
and it's forks, or if it's actually the X11 Display Server itself.

Also, logging out of the session can fix the issue temporarily (until
the steps are followed to reproduce the bug again).

I have also reported the bug in
[here](https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon/issues/3442#issuecomment-997984435)
and [here](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/4889)

OS Information:
Linux Kernel version: 5.4.0-91-generic
Distribution release: Ubuntu 20.04
Distribution version: 20.04.3 LTS

DE Information:
GNOME version: 3
GNOME Shell version: 3.36.9

Display Server Information:
Display Server: X11
Display Server Version: X.Org 1.20.11

Display Manager Information:

Processor Information:
Hardware: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-6100 CPU @3.70GHz
Cores: 2
Threads: 4

Video Card Information:
Hardware: NVIDIA Corporation: GM206 [GeForce GTX 950]
Driver: nvidia-driver-470 (proprietary, tested)

Here's one of the best ways to reproduce this issue:
1. Open Discord
2. Enter into any voice channel on Discord and just stay there for a day, it 
may range from 30 minutes to 24 hours for it to occur.

Expected results:
The text shouldn't vanish from the desktop environment and it shouldn't cause 
any graphical issues. Instead, if anything stops working, it should reload! And 
the Settings app should open without crashing.

Actual results:
The text vanishes from the desktop environment and/or other graphical errors 
occur, and the GNOME settings app crashes upon attempting to open.
