Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Best Power Management: Fedora 38 + Kernel 6.2.15 + TLP?
They definately do conflict, it was discussed back when ppd first arrived: https://github.com/linrunner/TLP/issues/564

Power State management best practices?
If you're certain your GPU has deeper power saving states than P8, I would start by checking why it's not using them. Maybe tlp, powertop or nvtop (or their documentation) can help.

Raspberry Pi 5 vs. Intel N100 mini PC comparison
powertop is just relaying whatever value my laptop's battery is reporting for consumption, read from sysfs[0]. Are you suggesting my laptop's battery is merely estimating current and/or voltage? I don't know much about the hardware in my laptop's battery, and I'm not succeeding in finding information online, but I'm going to need a source to believe that considering how trivial it would be for the battery to report real values for current and voltage.

Tool to monitor phone battery?
The only Linux tool for this I've even heard of is powertop , which OP mentioned, but it looks nontrivial to build (kernel patches are mentioned).

ARM64 Linux Workstation
It just got added in 2023, but there's now --auto-tune-dump which generates a command line invocation of powertop that would set all the auto-tune settings. Instead of running --auto-tune, you can make a script of this dump, modify it to your contentment, and run the script instead of auto-tune at startup.
Ideally there would also be a way to omit certain tunings from auto-tune as well, but

Moving from BSPWM to DWM and have questions
Would running auto-cpufreq and powertop be a better combination to avoid installing XFCE4 dependencies? I don't play a lot of games or do a ton of compiling, but when I need to, I would like to be able to get as much out of the hardware as I can.
- How does powertop determine which components/programs consume and how much?
-
Powertop constantly resetting
Recommend looking for an open bug report here for the same issue, and if nobody else has opened one you can file one yourself to get support/get the issue fixed in a patch.

Conserving battery on company managed Linux Distro
`powertop --auto-tune` can set some settings to "good", but it may in fact be counterproductive, e.g. setting USB to autosuspend that suspends a mouse that shouldn't be, etc. See here for more info. In my experience/research, it doesn't really do much.

What do you do to maximize battery life on your laptop?
For me it wasn't efficient by default. I use powertop and auto-cpufreq
