Gnome-screensaver shouldn't be running on GNOME Shell. It's 5 years old software and is needed only for old GNOME flashback (fallback) session.

This is a system that's gone through upgrades from at least xenial through artful. I never manually enabled it, but it could have been included in an older session along the way and carried forward if nothing stopped it.
