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.

gnome iirc also has merged the wip protocol so it should work on gnome too

It’s hidden away on Gnome. You need to hit a keyboard shortcut that brings up a special console window then run a command to enable the HDR.

For better or worse, Plasma has the option prominently displayed in settings.
