    I want to use Linux at the desktop, but I want HDR and Freesync support. Not sure if Linux supports either in a big way.

      Freesync and any vrr for that matter is supported on Wayland and X.org. HDR is supported on sway and some other compositors, but I don’t think there is too much adoption from apps yet

        VRR only works on Xorg if you only have 1 screen. And XWayland is broken on Nvidia.

          The problem is NVIDIA, not Linux. Don’t buy NVIDIA, and you’ll save yourself a lot of grief.

            I know. Too bad that Nvidia has more than 85% of marketshare.

      Valve is working on HDR support for the steam deck’s steamOS, which I assume will lead to other distroS following

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
