Software options for thermal throttling?
#1
Are there any daemons, kernel tweaks, ... available to have more aggressive thermal throttling on the PinePhone? It does get very hot if running demanding tasks, and I don't like it both for my hands as well as the possible impact on battery lifetime. However, making sure to limit all tasks one by one is lots of work, it'd be nicer if the whole system just throttled earlier when temperature crosses a certain threshold over a certain amount of time.

Does somebody happen to know if some throttling tweaks like that are available in the kernel or in some power management daemon that can be tweaked for use on the PinePhone? Or would any of you know a good place to request this for consideration?
