My computer literally killed itself when I tried to run a Wine app and a Steam game at the same time

When I minimize a game or any program running with either proton or Wine, it crashes. Can someone help me with this?
I'm using Fedora 38, Wayland and Nvidia GPU.
May not be the same issue as you, but fullscreen apps have been the most finicky for me, when they lose focus they become stuck minimized. Borderless window usually fixes that issue for me.
Try using Gamescope. It runs the application within a micro-compositor (like an independent desktop inside a window). From the application's perspective, its window is always open and in focus.
Wayland might be the issue, especially on Nvidia. Try X11 maybe
