Memory being hogged by Plasma Shell
here is the other one. Memory usage at 54% with only one game running - eternal lands which is a very old game that doesnt demand alot in general and is a linux version so no vms running. Everything else is closed except vpn. The memory usage keeps climbing until it hits 100 then freezes the system. My system information:

ok, maybe I typed it wrong. I tried again with:
"journalctl --user --no-hostname /usr/bin/plasmashell -b 0 | > ~/log.txt" and got an empty text file?

How do I automount my second drive
Well, I have had another go at Bazzite and using the distrobox as HikarKinght suggested, I installed git/yay which I am used to using in Arch, and ran them through an Arch distrobox I setup and I now have all the apps running and, the external drives are ok now. I have no idea why they were running so slow last week. Was just one of those weeks where nothing seemed to work. But Im not a quitter, Bazzite is good. So I took a break, came back to it and everything seems to be working well, thank you ❤️

How do I automount my second drive
No, what I mean is with Arch, there is total independence on what apps I can install. I dont need to be restricted with apps then be told oh but you can use the distrobox. When in Arch Linux, there is so much freedom with what I can install, I simply do not even need any distrobox. I can install kde partition manager, gnome partition manager, disks, gparted, all from the terminal. Yet in Bazzite, your locked into only being allowed to use the worst ever partition manager and have to use distrobox to install, then even with that, the ones I did have to put through there, were trying to use other apps to open up. I had to go in and edit that out. I mean my home media server was trying to open using kate lol. And with some app, the only options I was stuck with were AppImages where there is then complications with no personalized launch icons on panels and I couldn't edit the launch scripts and can not manage their updates.
I still have Bazzite installed as the single OS on my laptop, I am using Arch from an external drive and once I have caught up on tings, I will go and play around with Bazzite and see if I can figure whats causing the external drives to be so slow. It took 5 hours to transfer 2 gig from the internal drive to an external, yet yesterday in Arch, I transferred 60 Gig from the internal to external in 5 minutes! So I proved there is absolutely nothing wrong with these external drives.

How do I automount my second drive
I have gone back to Arch Linux. I still have Bazzitte as my single OS on my internal drive but have installed Arch onto the empty external and am booting into that as my main until Bazzite matures and doesnt have these issues that I have had, bar the brain fart with using kdepm.
I had NO issues like I have with Bazzite getting everything up and running. There was no excuse for the issues I had setting up external drives with auto mount nor permissions nor them running so shockingly slow. Plus I had issues trying to install software because Bazzite doesnt have the same freedom as Arch with software and a lot more is available on the Arch Repository. I had everything up and running within hours, yet it was a week of pulling my hair out with Bazzite. I understand measures put in place for "security" BUT it feels too constrained, almost as bad as windows. I LOVE the freedom and ease of good old Arch Linux. I will watch Bazzite though for updates ❤️
