Win10 is when telemetry was implemented for the first time. You'd better be off with win8.1 with some custom start menu adjustments or straight back to a heaven of Win7.

Or, inhales deeply, just install Linux and do not bother with MS crap cause Linux just works and there is some sort of a distro for pretty much anyone's taste and preferences that will serve them as good or even better than win10/11/8.1/7.

Linux HDR support is so bad that it makes the entire OS not worth using.

I was using Debian for 4 years but unfortunately I had to stop using it once I stopped being poor because it just cannot run an OLED as its supposed to.

HDR is only supported on AMD cards and has abysmal software integration, even on supported content.. Comparatively, it just works on W11, even on titles that don't support it because of AutoHDR.

I hope it can be resolved soon, but as of rn unfortunately its not there yet.

The problem lies in the fact that Linux could easily integrate HDR for everything, but NVIDIA. HDMI and MS are gatekeeping these features.

Say no more, fam, I see your problem. Debian is what you run for stability. If you want features, you need a more appropriate distro.

HDR in Wayland using KDE Plasma 6.6 and GNOME 50 is supported on NVIDIA-open-595.58.03 and later.

A lot of specific applications still suck, including Firefox, but HDR is supported on AMD and NVIDIA.

Really weird hill to die on. HDR is nice, but it's not that nice.
