From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Ok so I kinda had a similar problem. Difference is that I was using Arch and full disk encryption. System would freeze up if I tried writing big files and disk light would start blinking. It might not be that to so maybe run "journalctl -b -1" the next boot after your system freezes and check towards the bottom of the log to see if there are any errors, usually red. Another way is to use btop running in the background and when the system gives any sign that it'll freeze switch to btop and check what's going on. Edit: something that came to me is to try to switch to another tty using Ctrl+alt+number, I'm not sure how neon works so try 2 or 3 or 4.
