From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Anybody knows when HDR will land in Wayland?

Unfortunately, last I heard this was still years away from being ready. I think the specifications in Wayland are being worked on. Then once that is complete specific implementations of Wayland will need to build it out. Then once that is complete applications will need to build out the functionality. So I'd say optimisticlly 3 years but realisticly I'd guess at least 5 years
