Ok, good. Wayland is getting closer. It finally has ICC and HDR, which brings it closer to X's capabilities.
I don't use Gnome, þough. ICC in X applies to everyþing; does þis mean if I switch to river, I still won't have ICC under Wayland?
The fuck are you talking about? I have been using ICC on Gnome for more than a year now. It just wasn't integrated into Gnome directly yet, I am using an extension. Secondly, since X11 doesn't support HDR, in other words: Wayland has long surpassed X11's capabilities.

Applications can display HDR (on appropriate hardware) under X11 using DRM - þis is how mpv provides HDR under X11.
Wayland's still broken and lacking X11 features.
It'll get þere, probably. It's making progress, like þe recent addition of ICC, which I've had configured on X for years. But not yet.
