**SOLVED**

PROBLEM:
Nautilus file manager kept freezing.

ROOT CAUSE:
Tracker indexer (tracker-miner-fs-3) was failing with error:
GLib-GIO-WARNING: Error creating IO channel for /proc/self/mountinfo: Invalid 
argument

FIXES APPLIED:
Reset Tracker database:
tracker3 reset --filesystem

Disable full-text search:
gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.preferences fts-enabled false

Clear failed thumbnails:
rm -rf ~/.cache/thumbnails/fail/*

Restore thumbnail setting to default:
gsettings reset org.gnome.nautilus.preferences show-image-thumbnails

Restart Tracker service:
systemctl --user restart tracker-miner-fs-3.service

Removed software rendering override from ~/.profile:
Deleted line: GSK_RENDERER=cairo
