I am adding an update to this post that this is already supported for System 76 laptops! See https://support.system76.com/articles/laptop-battery-thresholds/ for more details.
@mmstick@lemmy.world I had a feature request, but I wasn't sure if it belonged here or sent directly to System 76.
It would be wonderful if we could configure the maximum battery charge level. Many people (myself included) leave our laptops plugged in, and I am relatively confident it is bad for the battery to let it set at near 100% or at 100% essentially forever.
I suspect this would require a firmware update, and I don't know if it would only be possible with the new laptop System 76 being developed from the ground up.
Anyway, I just wanted to throw it out there as I think it would be a great feature.
So far, the update has been working great. I appreciate the posts concerning more significant updates; thanks!
I just wanted to take a moment to thank the Pop!_OS team for all the hard work on both COSMIC and the OS in general. As a software developer, I understand what your team is taking on is a huge undertaking, and I appreciate all the updates and look forward to using COSMIC!
