Maybe stay connected to the pi via SSH whatever diagnosis you try, then run htop and see if the memory increase happens slowly over time or something triggers it. If it's chromium, kill it via htop or kill instead of rebooting - is that a 100% fix? Anything interesting in the log files in /var/log at the point you have problems?
Thanks for the suggestions. Chromium is part of the Local UI display of MoOde, I use MoOde through the touchscreen. The reason for this setup is I want to have all my music with good sound quality at work. I cannot anything into my company's network, so I use a Pi with MoOde with the touchscreen + USB disk and DAC. All standalone, no network connection.
I've seen suggestions to replace Chromium with Firefox, but I'd rather avoid big modifications to MoOde. I'd rather stay on 6.7.1 in that case.
You don't need to use your company's network. By default, moOde will become an access point you can connect to directly from your phone/laptop the same way you connect to your router at home/work. Turn it on, give it a minute or so, then look for the Wifi SSID Moode, with password moodeaudio on your phone/laptop. Then connect and use this url:
172.24.1.1
on your phone/laptop. No other network is involved. If you have Android, maybe install M.A.L.P. (free, open source) and satisfy yourself you're happy controlling moOde using it.
