I killed xorg process and now, after rebooting, the login screen is frozen. I tried booting into recovery mode but I couldn't restart xorg.

Pardon my minimal understanding of xorg and what it does.

Events: I used pc -C Xorg to find the xrog processes. Then killed one of them. gdm3 crashed and the computer froze. rebooted. gdm3 login screen is frozen. booted into recovery mode and tried the following: 1. systemctl restart gdm3 2. init 3 3. systemctl restart display-manager

In fact startx or xinit would start the xorg server but if you still have problems regarding the login screen,you can try sddm.
sudo apt install sddm
and during the installation, change the default display manager to sddm.
Display manager configuration
