 * Hello [@ocsaroy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ocsaroy/)
 * What block are you editing when you get the error? Do you have a screenshot of
   the list view of the block you’re trying to edit? Unfortunately, the stack trace
   you provided isn’t enough to determine what is happening.

 * Hello [@vietlongtravel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vietlongtravel/)
 * Do you have screenshots of the error when it occurs? Does it happen when you 
   move widgets, or when you immediately visit the widget editor? Unfortunately,
   I can not reproduce the problem without more information.

 * Hello [@ocsaroy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ocsaroy/) and [@vietlongtravel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vietlongtravel/)
 * I see the video provided by a previous post. The video shows an error I often
   come across when using frontend translation from Google. I mention this because
   the video shows the admin uses English, but the content of the page is a foreign
   language.
 * As a support agent, I often visit sites that are in different languages. In these
   cases, my browser extension asks me if I want to preserve the site language or
   translate the page. Personally, I experience the same page break when the language
   is not English, my browser extension translates the content of the page, and 
   I select content within the Gutenberg list view in the same way the video shows.
   When I view foreign languages in Gutenberg, I cannot use the browser extension
   to translate Gutenberg content because the page breaks.
 * Is it possible you are experiencing the same problem I described? If so, could
   you disable the frontend translation and see if that solves the problem?
