Honestly, I don’t care for HDR. Even on Windows when I bought my HDR compatible display, i activated it in OW and couldn’t see the difference.
I’m much more interested in better FPS playing competitive games than an imperceptible improvement on color rendering.
And I’m sure HDR support will improve in the future as Proton keeps on getting better.
Instead of focusing on the cons in my post I would suggest looking at the bigger picture and weighting each pros and cons and see how they affect your gaming experience.
Windows has plenty of very heavy cons outside of compatibility and it’s only fair to account for them. Windows would have no problem updating mid game. Linux will never do that. That’s a real life problem Windows gamers experience.
Having to “tweak” for HDR is enough of a problem in itself. It should be a simple on/off switch in your OS, like it is on Windows.
Sure.

HDR is not “imperceptible”.
Also you talk about playing competitive games, yet you are on Linux, an OS where most of the popular competitive games aren’t available?
