The Linux kernel 6.2 has (finally) added support for Realtek 8822BU. Unfortunately, this newly added in-tree module has a lower networking performance, at least on my system: 30 Mbps with 8822BU compared to 100 Mpbs (which is the maximum of my ISP contract) with RTL88x2BU.
After I added the following lines to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf Linux again loads the more performant RTL88x2BU module:
Yep, you are right, blacklisting rtw88_8822bu is enough and more specific!
I somehow missed the entry in the README, maybe I was searching for "Linux 6.2". It might be useful to mention that explicitly, as it has found its way into the mainline kernel with this release.

Linux again loads the more performant RTL88x2BU module:Maybe this should be added to the main README file @RinCat , in case other users are stumbling across this issue as well?
