Why are drivers so complicated?
RHEL 8 is a 4.18 kernel, this driver might work as it is tested with 4.15. Realtek drivers are known to be annoying, unfortunately they are in a ton of USB dongles because they are so cheap.

Archer T3U
You bought an adapter with no linux support. A short google search shows that thing uses a Realtek RTL8812BU chip. It looks like there is a 3rd party driver made for linux at https://github.com/fastoe/RTL8812BU but it requires you to clone and compile it.

brostrend wifi adapter
Is it https://www.brostrend.com/products/ac3? I ask because I bought https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/284231856690 and followed instructions here, https://github.com/fastoe/RTL8812BU - instructions are different depending on kernel. Yours and mine use the same chipset.

BTF file not generated because vmlinux could not be found
The sophisticated driver from https://github.com/fastoe/RTL8812BU expects the mentioned kernel image vmlinux in the standard location

Couldn't install RTL8812BU driver & gave up
I downloaded this driver: https://github.com/fastoe/RTL8812BU/tree/v5.8.7 and hoped to easily install it offline, but it didn't work. Terminal tries to download metadata, but obviously it's not possible without internet. Compiling it gave also an error, if I remember correctly it said that it couldn't find anything in temp build folder? DKMS can't be installed either. I also tried to download it on my phone and move it then to Fedora (like I did with the WiFi driver), but it wasn't possible to install it because of too many dependencies that I have no access to...

Had no WIFI option at all. Downloaded this driver (RTL8812BU v5.6.1, for 5.10 kernel) on my phone and connected it then to my PC, so I can install it: https://github.com/fastoe/RTL8812BU/tree/v5.6.1

Improve battery life
I know that Pop os doesn't recommend installing tlp because it might interfere with system-76 power, Is it the same for something like powertop or auto-cpufreq?

NUC X15 abnormal temperature while running Linux
The device had only been purchased ~1-2 months ago so I don't think that dust in the fans would be an issue (as suggested in another post; Intel NUC's overheating - Solution!). The installation of Linux is more or less fresh, the only thing (I think) installed that would affect temperatures is auto-cpufreq (which has slightly lowered temperatures).
