It is the right place to ask but as to get support, YMMV.
This is partially a known problem with the proprietary nvidia driver. The known part is that on context switches like VT switch or suspend/resume FBOs like background images etc. get destroyed so the WM has to take care to rebuild them. Which was working pretty fine with Gnome before but isn’t working anymore telling from my own experience but I didn’t care enough so far to check if this is a regression in Gnome 3.32 or in the nvidia driver. The gnome-shell crashing sure is a gnome bug.
