> On Apple platforms or on Windows, you could look at the crash logs captured by the operating system’s built-in crash reporter, but on Linux that’s typically all you had to go on.

On modern linux distros, simply typing `coredumpctl debug` puts you right into gdb with the core dump loaded. If debuginfod is set up (not sure what the defaults look like there across distros), it will even automatically download debug symbols for all libraries loaded at the time of the crash.
