Usually around 20-30% of the time, my wifi card is not found, rebooting usually fixes it but its getting annoying now

Are you dual booting with Windows? You need to make sure the Fast Start Up feature in Windows under power management is disabled if you are.
Have you tried disabling power management for the wifi card in /etc/modprobe.d/wifi.conf
add
options iwlwifi power_save=0
Did not work, also another interesting i found is that i can not restart or shut down through software, if i type reboot in the terminal, it mentions something about a sleep or shutdown operation already in progress. So i have to shutdown by pressing and holding the power button
I guess you already checked the Windows settings.
Edit: You should set up the Magic SySRq Key
The Linux kernel authors have provided a very nice feature of issuing low-level commands to the kernel directly, regardless of the state the system is in. This is called the “Magic SysRq Key”, because these commands are issued by pressing the SysRq key on the keyboard (if you can’t find it, typically, it shares the same physical key as the Print Screen key, but on some laptops it can be elsewhere).
A common use is to reboot when the computer freezes and becomes unresponsive due to some software…
Maybe try the following
sudo pacman -S linux-firmware
sudo modprobe -r iwlwifi && sudo modprobe iwlwifi
reboot
Try this: nmcli network on
Linux-firmware is upto date so it just reinstalls
Need more information. Post the urls

The output shows that the proper module is loaded for the WiFi? Is it working?

It’s loading the firmware.
Nothing stands out. It should be working.
By the way, i dont think i can do logs while offline, so i got these by restarting several times to get the card working again
Maybe it’s something to do with the Gnome desktop causing the issue?

Have you investigated why this is happening?
I am not sure if I read the journal correctly that you have provided, but it starts a shutdown sequence and a minute later it starts the gnome tracker:
Jun 25 18:40:29 gamingmachine systemd[820]: Reached target Shutdown.
...
Jun 25 18:41:39 gamingmachine systemd[1265]: Starting Tracker metadata extractor...
This is really weird. I would try to understand why this shutdown sequence is being started. It can well be the root cause for a deactivated wifi.

Did you tried nmcli network on as I told you above? I had the same problem more than one time…
I am having the same issue. Has anyone found a solution yet?
