Hi all,
This post is just centralizing the current bug reports open upstream :

None as of now |
| Fixed but upstream fix not available yet | the issue seems to be fixed by upgrading the VCN firmware. A testing firmware not to be used in production | amdgpu crashes sporadically when playing hardware-accelerated video in Firefox (#3005) · Issues · drm / amd · GitLab | Ryzen 7840U, 32GB, Kubuntu 24.04 development, 6.6.2-060602-generic #202311200609 Mon Nov 20 06:30:47 EST 2023, Mesa 23.3.0~rc4, Ensure hardware accelerated video decoding is enabled in Firefox (media.ffmpeg.vaapi.enabled=true, Play YouTube videos until amdgpu crashes) | Mesa issue #10198 |

| No | Investigation and logs required | https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/3050 | USB-C Dock Kensington 4 doesn’t work well, @dimitris has reported the issue on GitLab | 640x480 (no EDID gets parsed) |
Most of them are getting worked on by AMD and have been reported by users (of Framework laptop, and sometimes it does affect other hardware too).
Once they will be fixed, I will either edit this post or post a follow-up message.
Hoping, the drivers will soon deliver excellent stability, the BIOS 3.03 has fixed a lot of issues.
EDIT : Added issue with USB-C Kensington 4 docking station reported by @dimitris.
