So I've had this problem since 21.1.2, whenever I'm painting ni PS it freezes and crashes at seemingly random times.
And it's not just once or twice, I literally can't go a painting session without PS crashing more often that I've ever experienced. Last week I painted for 4h and I counted 15 crashes in total. I have no idea why this is happening and I haven't found any other person on the internet with similar problems to mine.
I have found some kind of weird connection to the crashes with the pipette tool, that whenever I've used the pipette to change the colour of my brushstrokes and start painting it pretty much crashes directly afterwards. However even though I've noticed that's the most usual fault it's not always the case and doesn't have to be the reason for a crash.
I've found some posts saying that plugins could be the fault for most crashes but I don't have any plugins for PS at all. Some say it could be that you have too many brushes in the program but I need all of mine for my painting and I don't see why this newer version of PS shouldn't be able to take the same amount of brushes that I've always used.
Please please I desperately need help with this.
EDIT:
So the freezes and crashes hasn't stopped but I've found a strange connection to them. It isn't just the pipette tool that makes the program crash. It's whenever I switch between ANY tool and go back to the Brush tool to paint when the program freezes and crashes.

You're not alone. I'm having regular freezes/crashes here too when brushing on 21.1.2

I have the latest update on a macbook pro 2019. Mine freezes while using the brush. Sometimes after a few minutes, sometimes after an hour or two. So frustrating
