If you are gaming on linux, you might have less than optimal performance when gaming. You might think that there is no way to improve your performance, but there is. It is called gamemode. gamemode…
Feral Interactive is a reputable game porting company. Coupled with the open source code, I’d reckon it’s probably fine. How much it actually improves performance, idk. Can’t imagine it’s that mind-blowing on a modern pc, but maybe it helps on old/underspec’d machines.
This looks a bit shady. Im not gonna use a weird OS tweak. Maybe if some sound source (like a magazine) reports about it.
It’s been preinstalled in Ubuntu since 20.04 if that helps. I use and haven’t had any issues with it so far
It’s pre installed in Ubuntu, so I wouldn’t call it shady.

Looks like it automates stuff you can do yourself. Basically a scheduler tweaking tool, along with some sort of GPU tweaks.
I found the source code here https://github.com/FeralInteractive/gamemode

Thanks for the info and for the link.
I quote what it does from there:
I still fear that I would crush my installed Linux with gamemode.
I used it on Fedora with no problems.
