The Return of the Frame Pointers
I think I might have confused two unrelated posts. The one that references Polar Signals is this one:
https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk/-/issues/...
So not a perf issue there, but they don't think the workflow is suitable for whole-system profiling. Perf issues were in the context of `perf` using DWARF:

- Finally mesa version 23.1.1 for fedora 38 has been published for testing 11 hours ago. It comes with quite important features like vulkan gpl for RADV to fight stutters in games and for better performance.

Yocto
But the fd-sdk https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk and gnome build meta https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-build-meta projects can prove as good references.

Rant: Desktop Sandboxing
With all of these hypothetical features out of the way and looking just at current release software, Flatpak allows you to do so much stuff that isn't accessible for a not-so-techy user. Custom installation folder? Yep. Running mesa-git GPU drivers? You got it. Any way to easily do this via GUI? In typical Linux fashion, nope. For a GUI focused packaging format this is a big letdown.
- Issue found for: Steam Deck Issue With Flatpak Hardware Decoding
- Steam Flatpak. Tried RADV_PERFTEST=gpl with proton-ge-54 but doesnt seem to be working when compared to using it with Bottles. Please see if I did it right.

Is there any way to force a specific Mesa driver for applications when multiple Mesa driver versions have been installed?
Link to (official?) how-to: https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk/-/wikis/Mesa-git

Fedora Workstation 38 Is Shaping Up To Be Another Fantastic Release
You can load up Mesa GIT using environment variables, see here. Honestly what I miss the most from flatpak Steam is properly working non-Steam shortcuts, but I've given up on that.
- Are all AMD GPUs equally well supported?

PSA: The new OBS update breaks VA-API encoding when used with the Flatpak
It was my understanding that the packages for vaapi are just put into the -extra version of the sdk so app maintainers can opt out, but they are still available if they want to use them. See https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk/-/merge_requests/10616

I always need to kill Pop!Shop before having it ran
But when I update PopOS I use topgrade, and I use it daily. It not only updates via Flatpak and apt it also knows about and updates Snaps, Rust, Node.js, brew and Python and all of the other ways I install software.

Which extra package manager for cli applications? brew, nix, others, none?
If you cannot avoid mixing package sources, then maybe topgrade would be useful to you. It leverages all package managers it can find on your system to upgrade all available packages. It works with apt, dnf, zypper, pacman, linuxbrew, nix, pkgsrc, and everything else you can imagine.

Convert my OS to Homebrew installation?

Pop Shop saying I have system updates; apt says everything is up to date
