    power-profiles-daemon is used by GNOME and KDE yet the article reads as if this was ubuntu only.

        As a non unbuntonion it did make me go “omg, wtf?”

        I thought the whole point of these debian variants was to add useful stuff like that - faster then debian.

      It’s an article about Ubuntu 24.04 on an Ubuntu-centric blog. It’s looking at that particular OS and whatever the OS uses. It doesn’t use KDE and it doesn’t use vanilla GNOME. As an Ubuntu 22.04 user who’s considering upgrading to 24.04 and is curious what’s in it, the fact that PPD is used elsewhere is a mere coincidence. 😊

      Yeah Fedora uses that since forever and will even switch away from it in half a year or so, to tuned.

      But a users reported way better batterylife on Ubuntu than on Fedora. So maybe they do something better?
