Wait... There's no HDR support? Is that true?
HDR is more important than high frame rates in many games, assuming you have a good monitor that supports it. Seriously, it's amazing and extremely underrated.
The meme is kinda outdated. You can get HDR since KDE Plasma 6
Do game support it? Last I heard it didn't work on any games
Valve did some work to support it in steam deck, it's going to work its way upstream hopefully.
So it's the answer "no" right now?
Probably depends on how much effort you want to put into it. Probably works in some distros with certain repos, but won't work out of the box everywhere.
It works in Elden Ring and Baldur's Gate 3 for me. Haven't tried anything else.
I think games running through proton and wine support it.
So it feels like these are all extra layers. I haven't used Wine in years, but it was very frustrating the last time I tried it.
By comparison (don't crucify the messenger), Windows supports it by default. This is one of the many reasons why I still game on Windows. In general, games just work. You click install and then play and you're up and running in just a few minutes.
...I'll see myself out.
Running games through Proton is as simple as clicking install and then play on Steam. You might need to enable Steam Play or such but I haven't had setup or config troubles with games in years now
Which came out less than a year ago and is the first desktop to support it.
