I am looking for a way to play HDR content on Linux. From what I understand KDE 6 has experimental support for HDR, but isn't available on Pop OS 22.04. Apparently Cosmic desktop will support HDR when it's released, but I don't know if the experimental version will.

Can anybody help me here? Will I need to change distro?

It kinda sucks that even in Arch you have to use KDE to get HDR support. I greatly prefer Gnome. It's so stupid simple that I get things done way faster.

even in Arch

What do you mean with "even in Arch", why would this be different across distros?

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Because Arch is a rolling distro, so it gets new stuff faster. I guess what I'm ultimately saying is that it sucks I need to use a DE that I don't like to get HDR support, or alternatively, it sucks that Gnome doesn't support HDR, even with the newest version.

There are other distros with KDE 6, not just Arch.
