@Khnome, I am not facing any issue with DNF. According to me, it is a much better package manager, it is detailed, and very simple to use. I am using mode switcher, known as 'Switcheroo', it increases the performance of my laptop by more than 50%

As the word says, it changes the performance of the CPU based on power left on your system. Have you observed that when your PC goes below 10%, at that time your computer slows down. The CPU governor changes from performance mode to power saving mode. This is done to save battery when it's too low.
