Idk if it logs it as the system would just hard crash and i had to do a full restart either by pulling the plug out or holding down the button

It will most definitely be logged if it’s Gnome crashing. If the entire system is crashing that’s a very different story, and if you’re hard resetting it sounds like a system crash, not Gnome specifically. Depending on how it crashes, there may be logs.
