Enable Developer Mode, Install Plugin Loader & PowerTools On The Steam Deck | Disable SMT | Hack
Install steps for Decky are exactly the same, except you paste curl -L https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/PluginLoader/raw/main/dist/install_prerelease.sh | sh into Konsole instead (note the "prerelease"). Further details are on the Decky Loader README if you need them.

1st Day impression with my 512 GB
It's an plugin for Steam OS Plugin Loader. Unfortunately it's not a user friendly install.

Question regarding emulation
For emulation that’s bad as you mostly need one CPU core crunching as fast as it can. Go here https://deckbrew.xyz and then download PowerTools. Turn off SMT. Et voila, non choppy emulation.

I made a plugin to suspend games and apps similar to how consoles do (Deck Suspender)

10+ hours _actual_ battery life in VNs & turn based games by using PowerTools and setting GPU FastPPT Power=0, which forces 400mhz CPU. Can get lower than 4w consumed(!). Visual Novels work perfectly since FPS doesn't matter for them.
Main question: can anyone else reproduce these results? You'll need https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/PluginLoader to use PowerTools

I'm working on a plugin to integrate TeamSpeak 3 into the quick access sidebar
Unfortunately there is no official API available. The way it is done as of today requires user to enable developer mode on their Deck. If you want to learn more, check out PluginLoader on GitHub.

Is it safe to keep the steam deck plugged in while docked?
But rarely answered with a way to preserve the battery health. The PowerTools plugin for Decky allows setting a charge limit easily. IMHO it's especially recommended if the Steam Deck is primarily used docked / on charger. Because in such cases, it's healthier to keep the battery at ~50% and disabling charging. Thankfully the Steam Deck is so amazing to allow passthrough operation on a charger.

Help with plugins
You mentioned power options and colour, so I'd definitely recommend PowerTools and VibrantDeck - both being available using Decky Loader.

Steamdeck doesnt charge in gaming mode. Does charge in Desktop mode.

Overclocking and Powertools
Basically, you need to: 1. download the `pt_oc.json` https://github.com/NGnius/PowerTools/blob/main/pt_oc.json file, put it to the `~/.config/powertools/` folder 2. make your modification, in this case set all the max values of each CPU core to 4000 MHz 3. go back to game mode, select reinstall powertools from decky plugins manager

help after successful overclock
I'd recommend everyone who wants to modify PowerTools to use their overclocked values actually read the wiki page. It's important to understand what you're doing, so I would rather people don't skip the details.

What is the best method of preserving battery health of Steam Deck long term? Since it can't be easily replaced.
Yup. After your comment, I hit the history, and it looks like the code that I saw which hinted that implementing a charge limit should be possible was all added as part of that exact feature with https://github.com/NGnius/PowerTools/commit/f42efab0b005a1d389d9089d6d2cd1f7bfa27050
- Only feature I still always wanted, on any rechargeable device ever and it's from a PowerTools update. Pause charging!
- What about curve optimizer ?
