Do you think that it's because of the Big Sur?

It may depend on which Big Sur.

If you haven't done so already, make sure you update to Big Sur version 11.4.

Same here. The apps are crashing. The crashed thread is everytime the following:

Crashed Thread:        10  Dispatch queue: com.apple.CoreText.fontdescriptorMatching

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.2.3, Numbers, Pages and Keynote 11.1 (7031.0.102)

In the past there have been a few suggestions to fix this kind of problem. Some work for some people, others for other people. Most recently the most common issue seems to be with iCloud. The solution has been to log out of your iCloud account then log back in. In another thread today I suggested to first try turning off iCloud Drive for Numbers (and for you also Pages and Keynote) in System Preferences/Internet Accounts/iCloud/iCloud Drive Options to see if that fixes it. It is so far just an idea, totally untested. It might or might not work and the problem might or might not come right back when you turn them back on.

Can confirm that this issue is also effecting non-M1 machines.

Same here!

Please mark this thread as solved so others with the same problem (of which there have been a few) will be able to find this solution, versus it looking like just another unsolved problem.
