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.

They as in Wayland? Xorg doesn't have HDR either and never will.
As in Wayland yes. X does have color correction stuff, which is the most important part.
uh, kinda not really? I mean, you can calibrate your screen to sRGB, if you calibrate it to anything else, every non managed app will completely and utterly break
That's... not really true? Or at least i haven't run into that problem.
what have you used? If you set, say DCI-P3 (not display p3 which uses a similar transfer to 2.2) the issues become evident due to the different transfers that it is quite off.
if you used something like display p3, then due to the similar transfer, only gamut changes which is a lot harder to notice at a glance
