With nearly any modern computer one should use "Decode | Deep" for
maximum FT8 sensitivity.

In case you had wondered about the following post from K1HTV:

If I made the QSO and it shows up on LOTW, it wasn't a false decode!
And, BTW, WSJT-X is not without false

HI !
My opinion:
I have also tested this some time ago running both programs in parallel
with same linux PC, same rig IC7300, OCF dipole 80-10m.

But difference is so small that it did not cause
After this past weekend's ARRL VHF contest, one of the top SOHP scorers,
Mike, W3IP, posted a note to the PVRC reflector along with the breakdown of
his score. In his comments he compared the FT8 sensitivity of WSJT-X vs
JTDX. Mike is a technically sharp guy and I trust what he has reported.
