What about HDR?

I’m running 4k HDR 120Hz on NVidia 5070 in KDE Plasma on CachyOS.

To enable in Proton games it requires an extra environment variable.

The AMD part is actually the opposite, since AMD drivers on Linux can’t do HDMI 2.1, but NVidia can.

Zorin OS 18 Hits 2 Million Downloads as Windows Users Drive Growth

Reply in thread

When I was doing web searches for distro research just before Win 10 EOL (and before Zorin exploded), Zorin was one of the top recommendations that I repeatedly saw from users in Linux communities when people asked for distro recommendations.

Zorin was also the top recommendation given to me by distrochooser.de.

So I'm not surprised that many people leaving Windows ended up there.

I made a short list of distros to try and Zorin was very buggy for me (possibly because they just did a major release at that time) and I don't like GNOME, so I ultimately ended up on CachyOS.

Systemd v261-rc1 is out with the 'birth date field'

Miss me with this "slippery slope" BS.
Having a standardized place to store the DOB is a good thing and it should have been there even before these laws.
And if some users want to comply with those laws, then they should have a way to do it.
If anybody actually tries to make this a hard requirement (which isn't going to happen), then you can bitch about it at that time.
