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.

Personally, I'm looking forward to native Wayland support for Wine and KDE's port to Qt 6.

I think KDE and Gamescope have experimental HDR working with Windows games.

I don't know if KDE got it working yet, but Gamescope's works pretty well out-of-the-box. Nobara and maybe Chimara OS already have this ready with a session for Steam Big Picture mode.

Kinda funny that Windows games seem to always get compatibility with these things first. I guess just adding support in Wine means more games get the functionality at once than developers adding it on a per-game basis.
