Ubuntu – _usr_bin_gnome-shell.120.crash every boot

Recently, every time I boot my, otherwise stable, 18.04 system (installed on SSD), I get the error pop-up:

Clicking on "Report problem…" does not present any other information.

Checking the /var/crash folder there is always just one report:

$ ls /var/crash
_usr_bin_gnome-shell.120.crash

I'm not sure how to troubleshoot or fix this issue, can anyone point me in the right direction.

I am unable to reproduce this error. Possibly fixed with apt upgrade done yesterday.

Update: 2020-02-06
I just got another similar crash after signing in from laptop close lid sleep, but this time two crash reports, one when I closed the lid (I guess, from the time) and one when I signed back in:

Update 2: 2020-02-06
Chat suggestion:
Resize swapfile to 8GiB
Adjust swappiness back to default (60)
That done, reporting back with news positive/negetive in the next few days.
