My Starfield Performance Settings - Some Tweaks Other Have Not Posted - Near 30 FPS consistently in New Atlantis - video included
First you will need Cryoutilities installed. Set it up and set the recommended settings. There is a guide on how to set VRAM to 4gb in the video for Cryoutilities, so do this as well. Next install the Starfield Potato Mode Textures Mod and use the 256 bit version for slightly better quality (the standard version is a bit better performance but I don’t like the muddiness of the textures).

Steam Deck is currently 20% off during Steam’s Summer Sale
CryoUtilities will let you keep the shader cache on the same storage device the game is installed on. I still think an SSD is a worthwhile upgrade but I thought that was worth mentioning.

Help removing removing program which has had its repo removed
A while ago I started getting error messages when running dnf up, saying that the metadata for the repos balena-etcher uses. Looking at their github page, I see that there is an open issue about this, where they say they can no longer afford to host the package at cloudsmith, but there is no info about how to work around the issue.
