KDE completely freezes, SSH works

questionbug
Hi everyone, I've been facing a problem recently. In this particular case I have:
- 4 terminal Windows, the heaviest is a distrobox downloading an LLM model
- 9 Firefox tabs
- VS Code Flatpak open

My hardware is AMD 5600x, 32gb DDR4, 9070XT

Sometimes the whole desktop freezes, completely random. I thought I was fucking up something with Ollama, but last time I enabled SSH.

This happened again 10 minutes ago, and while my PC is still frozen - visually - SSH works and I can interact with the computer.
I tried restarting Plasma with
+ pkill -9 plasmashell
+ systemctl --user restart plasma-plasmashell

But it still isn't working.
What can I look to see what the cause of these freezes? This is really bothering me lately, and I'm all up for fixing it.
Sorry for bad formatting, but I'm using my phone.
