I would look at the history output without grepping for gnome.  There
may be an issue from something without gnome in the name, and we can't
see what the disabled repo was.  I assume that the 
https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/IUlWCabjTPra7laQna9xHg log is
unfiltered.

Things that jump out of me from that list are big changes: kernel,
kernel-headers, firefox, and kmod-nvidia.  I presume that you did a
reboot, soon after.

It may be worth looking a bit further back, in case a prior
install/upgrade caused the problem, but you hadn't done anything that
would make you notice it, yet.

NB:  When you update Firefox, you really need to *fully* quit the
program and restart.  I've found that it goes haywire, otherwise.  If
you close a Firefox window, and other Firefox windows are left still
running, it's still running the prior installation.

Using safe mode should eliminate any plug-ins as being a cause.  That
still leaves things like scripting, or a change in encryption methods. 
So do all other websites cause problems, or just some?

You mentioned it seems okay in a plasma session.  So I wonder what
isn't run from gnome, under those circumstances?  gnome-settings-
daemon, gnome-keyring?  In Gnome you can see what's in the startup
applications, there must be a similar tool for plasma.

There is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see
the messages posted to the mailing list.

Next time your service provider asks you to reboot your equipment, ask
them to reboot theirs, first.
