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).

Battery life less since switching to Fedora (Nvidia GPU)
You can also use tools like auto-cpufreq to reduce your cpu frequencies when not in heavy load. auto-cpufreq can be configured a lot to meet your specific needs. auto-cpufreq: https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/auto-cpufreq

Is Fedora (as a project) regressing?
Intel had VP9 decode since Kaby Lake (7th gen); original Skylake (6th gen) could not handle it (see here).

libva-intel-driver vs intel-media-driver for Coffee Lake and Skylake overall?
I've heard intel-media-driver was the way to go for supported hardware, but I also heard that it could decode slower than libva-intel-driver (like #925), and that Intel doesn't officially support some kind of decode feature in intel-media-driver, but it's implemented in libva-intel-driver.

Intel Arc GPU support for Flatpak OBS?
You should be able to choose FFmpeg VAAPI encoder, though it is suggested that kernel 6.2 is needed for this to actually work. I can confirm that it's broken with my A770, while I can choose the device, encoder is failing. No such problem with my Rapter Lake iGPU.
