Will will be really successful, so KDE organization will have enough money to buy all the hardware needed for the developers to properly implement and test HDR support and why not, OLED screens and Vr headsets support too!
I'm really tired of not having even one desktop environment that can do this and all the high-quality media and technically advanced games cannot properly be used.
We work and buy high-end hardware for nothing, if the software cannot fully take advantage of it.

Yeah, no. I am a lifelong KDE user and fanboy, but there are some bugs in there for sure. Nothing that is a show stopper for my user case, but once in a while you can stumble upon some annoyances.
