What's the genie effect?

For me it's been super stable. I've hardly seen any bugs. And in those remote cases, it would be more correct to call them quirks than bugs, which have later been fixed anyway. I've been using for intensive gaming, AI projects, and audio production. And when I say audio production I don't say Audacity. I say recent versions of Ableton Live running on ASIO drivers with windows VSTs and Max 4 Live instruments at 5 ms latency, all of this running through Wine with an amazing Wine managing software called Bottle (hehe). As for gaming,, it's not hard to see people claming they get even more fps than they get with windows. It's not a PopOS thing, it's the Linux ecosystem that is finally getting mature enough to pull this out (this time for real). On top of this, System74, the company behind PopOS who is selling laptops with that OS, are also optimizing the kernel to make sure everything runs super smoothly... I really don't see where your "buggy as hell" is coming from.

we don't need an FOSS self-hosted alternative to X. We need a FOSS alternative to the cloud/hosted model such that there's distinction between the two, everything is everywhere for everyone, free. Fediverse, but better. But we're not even at Fediverse ;)

After switching to OnlyOffice I never looked back.

Also, take a look at Heroic (game launcher and library with integrated Wine for GOG/Epic/Amazon Prime), available for Windows too.

Improvements in inference speed would also manifest itself on those bigger models that may only partially fit into GPU VRAM. In some cases, the improvement on the GPU side alone, is strong enough to basically turn what you would previously consider a too-slow-to-be-usable higher quality model, into a faster, usable one.

What's a peleton? Genuine question from a non native English speaker.

Also you can right-click a playlist and select "Exclude this from musical profiling" (translated from my native language). I did that for many older playlists I'm no longer into, and this seemed to cause a significant steer in weekly recommendations which have since turned to be much more in line with my current tastes.

But the Clone-a-Lisa page does not use a native dark theme, and the problem seem to be just with the paint colors, which in my case for some reason are altered by Dark Reader. It could also be that it was a temporarily glitch as I've noticed that color manipulation by Dark Reader can be inconsistent at times (could be due to DOM loading timing and stuff like that).

This doesn't work well with browser extensions which darken web pages color themes (like "Dark Reader"), as all the painting colors will be rendered to black.

I know It might be obvious but having those extension always on I tend to forget they sometime can cause some visibility issues, so I'm leaving this here :)
