I understand the HDR thing dealt with the standards for it being absolute undecided mess; but it's looking like we'll have support cranked out before the end of 2024. Here's hoping, I do all my multimedia stuff on KDE.
The problem is that we will have crap loads more cool tech by that time. And none will work on Linux. It's always years behind.
On this I must respectfully disagree.
HDR monitors have been standardized more poorly than Bluetooth was, so I could kind of see this sort of producer interference coming. It didn't help that the average user doesn't even understand what that means.
Most modern hardware works out of the box on Linux, and often runs a stripped down kernel as its own firmware.
Except that it doesn't.
