I see so many people struggling to get HDR working even on Windows I wonder if it's really worth the trouble
i think it's mostly due to how prevalent fake hdr monitors are
most people don't understand it's essentially impossible to get hdr without an OLED/microLED or MAYBE VA and keep buying into marketing bullshit, which leads them to having pretty shitty experiences
It's not even implemented well in very many monitors. I think a lot of people just turn it in cause it's supposed to be "better" even if it doesn't make much of an actual difference.
