Haven’t actually tried not running the MM, since it autostarts. And I don’t have a mouse/keyboard attached to the mirror setup. Good question though.
But - I think I might actually have figured out what the problem is! I pulled out a long ethernet cable to hardwire the Pi to internet. And - it’s been running for three hours straight now. Thinking that this might actually be a hardware issue.
If it still runs tomorrow morning, I will call this a faulty Wifi circuit issue. Strange though, that it would coincide with the software update.
What do you you think? Could a dodgy Wifi crash the MM app?

@Lazershrimp dodgie wifi creates dodgie data, which crashes all kind of apps

MM has been running flawlessly for >24h now, with assistance of a LAN cable. I consider the issue solved. Have ordered a wifi usb dongle as a more permanent solution. I consider this issue solved.

@Lazershrimp awesome detective work!!
