"I can't do HDR"
I'm reading this on my hdr monitor on linux
And are you actually using the HDR features? Most can be run fine in SDR mode.
Yes, I use this monitor in hdr mode in both GNOME and KDE. I've been complaining about hdr on linux endlessly but it's gotten good support in the last 6 months or so on both. The new GNOME video player and the mpv flatpak both display hdr videos fine out of the box with no configuration. Firefox displays HDR videos (but not images yet) experimentally on wayland with a config option. With a couple of custom launch options and GE-Proton, I've been playing games in HDR too.
Oh sorry, guess you picked one of the select few distros that are capable of doing it.

Oops! Wrong.
I've been using Pop! OS. Guess what? That's Linux! Yay!
Yeah, like, Blender devs being: βwe implemented HDR on Linux. Windows? You can implement it yourself, if you want.β
Source: The real change log of some year or so ago, but I cannot find the link quickly. Here it states the Windows is supported too now.
I mean that's cool but I still can't game in HDR on Linux without changing distros or somehow going through and making it work myself.
Fits the meme pretty well, I think.
