      It’s an article about Ubuntu 24.04 on an Ubuntu-centric blog. It’s looking at that particular OS and whatever the OS uses. It doesn’t use KDE and it doesn’t use vanilla GNOME. As an Ubuntu 22.04 user who’s considering upgrading to 24.04 and is curious what’s in it, the fact that PPD is used elsewhere is a mere coincidence. 😊

      The great irony is, when I ran Windows native on those Intel Macbooks, I was getting better battery and performance than with macOS.

      Well this change can’t improve anything about Power Saver. It only affects Balanced which now should be a bit less of a gas guzzler.

      And yes, even the most aggressive power saving we have at the moment isn’t anything to write home about. If we paid 10 developers to hunt down power drain issues and submit fixes for a few years we may get closer to macOS. 😂
