> > HDR > Already supported

Is it though? I confess I haven’t tried in a few weeks but until last time I did, to get HDR in games you had to start a session with `gamescope` rather than a DE, and still had to set a bunch of flags - and in some ways have a very subpar experience with problems with mouse movements and other issues I can’t recall.

I exclusively game on Linux and I find the experience far superior than doing anything on the other OS, but last I checked HDR was not actually supported.

GNOME and KDE support HDR now too, so if you use those DEs you dont need gamescope anymore.

    KDE has supported it for a while on the desktop. Still needed Gamescope to make it work in games. Like I mentioned, I haven't tried it in some time so it may have changed.
