Reducing Idle Temperatures Using JaKooLit Dot Files

[whelanh]

First of all, thank you so much for the great install script! I'm really enjoying using Hyprland on Fedora. I noticed using the JaKooLit dot files that my idle temperature was about 3 degrees warmer than just using Fedora Workstation Gnome DE. That was not unexpected given the install warnings that certain animations/effects used more CPU. With the help of Claude AI, I modified Startup_Apps.conf, UserDecorations.conf, and UserAnimations.conf and got back to the same idle temps that Gnome was exhibiting. I've listed the file modifications at https://archsetup.blogspot.com/2025/05/optimizing-jakoolit-fedora-hyprland.html in case it is helpful to anyone. Essentially it is disabling rainbow borders, blur and shadow and simplifying the animations. Thanks again.
