HDR isn’t all that great for gaming yet, in my opinion. It takes too much tweaking just to get it working, because apparently games/proton still aren’t able to natively pass that metadata to Wayland?

Running every applicable game or all of Steam through Gamescope brings its own problems with how it handles the window, so I end up never using it at all. I just want it to be as simple as it is on Windows, man! 😩

Also, VRR seems to make my screen flicker at an unnoticeably-high-but-still-irritating rate at random whenever I alt+tab, never figured that out yet…

Finally, I do wish there was a simpler, more paint.net-like editor rather than GIMP, and I’m sure it’s out there somewhere, but otherwise basically every thing on that list of features works well enough for me.

Well, you still see the blocked message, just not the contents of that message. They can also still see your messages, they just can’t react with emotes. This is just feedback I’ve seen from people who use the feature, as some people (not necessarily me) take issue with these things
