I can hear the sound of Windows that "dings" when the S3 disconnec...

Chances are most problems are power problems, esp if ona dev kit and from PC USB on crappy USB cable.

Even straight in power problems often occur if not careful.
using 20A BFT-Lighting power supply for 95LEDs here. it's not a power problem.

To be fair, it may not be a task overflow in a task you start. Any chance you can post your code here?
it's open source.

It's a stack overflow. Have you tried to configure a larger stack size? What's the current stack size for that task?

Best,

stack size is big enough, I even tryed with very very big stack, nothing changed.

Re: ESP32 is the worst microcontroller I played with

isn't the same code supposed to work on both ESP8266 and ESP32? we are talking about an easy code that gets a message from an mqtt broker and sends it to a led strip using the most famous library for the purpose like pubsubclient and fastled. ESP32 continue to crash while ESP8266 runs like a lion an...

ESP32 is the worst microcontroller I played with

As title.
Please fix all the errors you have on this microcontroller or simply stop to sell it.

ESP32 is supposed to be more powerful than ESP8266 but when you push it hard along with WiFi there is no way to avoid constant crashing, core panic, watchdog bites and so on.

Fix it or stop selling it.
