I didn't use my Steam Link for some time and was kinda surprised by the new UI in Big Picture Mode. And also very unhappy because it was a stutter feast with buffer artifacts all over the place. Once I could get a game running it was butter though. Turns out that Fedora Linux 37 removed the VAAPI profile VAProfileH264Main and once that was back in place I could use the hardware acceleration of the AMD GPU again.

The game is Steamworld Dig 2 that I got on GOG so it's a foreign game for Steam and Linux PC but who is counting in 2023 o0
