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.

When root on ZFS breaks on Arch Linux
The Arch derivative CachyOS[1] has ZFS-enabled kernels by default. And their repos can be added to existing Arch installs[2], so I've found this a nice way of working around the non-ideal state of ZFS integration in Arch. (Plus their kernel choices have other interesting features.)

Any progress about official support for x86_64_v3?
You can also use the CachyOS repos which have packages compiled with LTO as well.

Custom kernel 6.2.0 CachyOS has landed in Fedora 37 :)
Yes, here's the GitHub issue: https://github.com/CachyOS/linux-cachyos/issues/82
- Recommendation on steam os or nobara
- What do you think about custom kernels like xanmod, zen and tkg (Desktop)?
-
Any differences between DXVK_FRAME_RATE, mangohud's fps_limit, libstrangle, and gamescope's -r, especially in regards to input lag and frame stability?
in regards to that link, it looks like that person was running a cachyos kernel, ive never ran this kernel though but again any one of these kernels should be better than the default kernel.
- Filesystems- better options than ext4?

The Linux graphics stack in a nutshell, part 1
I think your information is quite outdated. The HWC overlay planes are heavily used, you can see this trivially just doing a 'dumpsys SurfaceFlinger' or grabbing a systrace/perfetto trace. When it falls back to GPU composition it's very obvious as there's a significant hit to latency and more GPU contention.
The overlay capabilities of the modern Snapdragons are also quite absurd. They support like upwards of a dozen overlays now and even have FP16 extended sRGB support. Some HWCs (like the one in the steam deck) even have per plane 3D LUTs for HDR tone mapping (ex https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope/blob/master/src/d... )
The composition is bandwidth heavy of course, but for static scenes there's a cache after the HWC in the form of panel self refresh.

Firefox Is Going to Try and Ship with Wayland Enabled by Default
One of the unfortunate things about Wayland is every compositor will have its own quality of implementation affecting things like latency.
With XOrg, especially in the pre-compositing days, you could choose whatever WM you want and it wouldn't have any impact on the rendering performance of X clients. Once the Composite extension was added and everyone started running composited X desktops, that started to change, and the increased latency already started appearing - in an arguably worse architecture than Wayland because there were often three processes involved with lots of IPC per draw: X-Client->X-Server->X-Compositor->X-Server->CRTC. At least in Wayland it's more like Wayland-Client->Wayland-Compositor->CRTC.
If you're unhappy with the rendering latency of your Wayland sessions, it may be worth trying alternative compositors... they likely vary significantly. The Valve/Steam folks have made a minimal one specifically optimized for games/low-latency [0]. I doubt the SteamDeck would be seeing as much success as it is if Wayland were so problematic in this department.

BG3 splitscreen on two monitors?
Use gamescope.

Help needed to confirm two 3.5 bugs
While streaming from the Deck to another device (phone with Steam Link app or another PC running steam), taking a screenshot on the Deck (hold the steam or ... button, and press R1) crashes the session (https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope/issues/961). This one also impacts Decky Recorder. If you're recording the screen or have replay mode on and take a screenshot, you'll have a crash.
- I haven't seen much posted about it here, so I wanted to point out Valve's gamescope micro-compositor (Linux Gaming)
- Gamescope adds support for Reshade effects

FYI on video corruption in cmd and terminal windows
Hey folks. I've got a 11900H motherboard and use the iGPU and stock Intel graphics drivers that I keep current. Even at baseline (so without overclocking of any kind, with good Corsair memory sticks configured without XMP and regardless of voltage), I would be able to use Windows 11 and the CMD or Terminal programs without issue but after some time they would be corrupt and unreadable. The fix was in Terminal, go into Settings, then Render, and turn on Software Rendering. I hope this helps someone else. FYI the corruption was very much like other Intel UHD graphics samples reported in this link: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope/issues/356
