Does tlp interfere with the new power profiles in LM 22.1? (Answer: yes!) (lemmy.ml)

Thought I'd ask before installing it and potentially messing things up.

From the Man Himself (Clem):

JL

Hello, and thank you for the new release. I have a question about the power-profiles – how and when are they applied? Here is why I ask. I have custom settings – set by tlp and by scripts – and I don’t want Cinnamon to override those settings. Thanks.

Clem

Hi JL,

They’re applied by power-profiles-daemon. Note that Cinnamon supports it as a feature but doesn’t depend on it. If you’re using TLP you can remove power-profiles-daemon for it not to interfere. The profiles will just then disappear in the Cinnamon Power Settings and power applet.

Now my only question is, which is better, tlp or power-profiles-daemon? Guess I'll have to run some tests.

Oh yeah, and what about auto-cpufreq?
