I confirm the existence of this bug, which affects my stable/teating 
system since Oct 20.

Besides being an atypical Mac M2/ asahi setup, my system is pretty 
standard, and the filesystem is good old extfs4.

The output of journalctl -f is thousands of lines of the type:

Oct 25 15:07:39 debian-mq org.gnome.Nautilus[11347]: While adding page: 
duplicate child name in GtkStack: figs

No crash observed here, only slowdown (and heated machine) as long as a 
nautilus windows is open, everything is normal once nautilus is not invoked
