My monitor runs at 144 Hz but games that should be at 60 FPS play too fast. How can I lock it?
There's probably a million different ways to limit FPS. I use GOverlay as a front-end for MangoHud, and limiting FPS in it is extremely simple. Simply change "FPS Limit", Save, and you're good to go. Use the selected hotkey (F1-F4) to enable/disable the limiter (and right shift + F12 to show/hide MangoHud itself)

How to increase contrast for games
Many people seem to use GOverlay as a GUI to configure it. I do it manually because when I tried GOverlay long ago it wasn't ready yet, but maybe it's good now, try it if you prefer a GUI.

Upgrade Help Thread
I was just clicking the icon in the application menu but it wouldn't launch. However I came across the issue in Github: https://github.com/benjamimgois-zz/goverlay/issues/203 , I used the .deb file as suggested and i'm able to use the program again.

Ubuntu 22.04 and GOverlay not running
Currently, the best workaround seems to be installing an older version. You can find version 0.6.1 here, (PPA linked by the GitHub page of GOverlay). Download the deb file for Impish, and install from file with apt.

FPS/performance overlay appearance
GOverlay is a GUI application that can be used to manage the config

Are games on Linux less sharp?
If you don't like configuring it from config files, there is a great GUI for configuring vkBasalt and Mangohud called GOverlay, available here. Sharpening is under the vkBasalt section's CAS tab.

Steam Deck vs. Switch OLED vs. Switch Regular
Would be interesting to see what the deck would look like with Reshade's fakeHDR or other options. Even the fakeHDR option makes a big difference in contrast and vibrancy. On Linux Reshade is called vkBasalt and can be configured with gOverlay. Don't know if that's available already via SteamOS.

Fallout 4 How to cap FPS
As written, your suggestion is unhelpful. The name of the project that provides the strangle command is libstrangle. Without that full name (or better yet, a link) it would be darn near impossible to find.

Any differences between DXVK_FRAME_RATE, mangohud's fps_limit, libstrangle, and gamescope's -r, especially in regards to input lag and frame stability?
Libstrangle. The options for it, at least for vsync, seem extremely similar to Mangohud's settings in GOverlay, so this may be doing the exact same thing.

Lock frames to, say, 45fps and downclock the screen to 45hz?
https://github.com/milaq/libstrangle with this you can limit the gpu to run an easy 45 fps. The monitors Hertz rate you can set in Linux, depending on what the screen will be capable of.
