Wayland? Does it have colors, window position memory or hotkeys yet? Or are they still in the “we only sell an idea, you do all the work” vaporware phase?
Wayland seems to have problems showing colors properly. I was trying to fix this issue myself a couple weeks ago.
Colors in Xorg and Windows(gross) show properly, Wayland always looks dull and muted in comparison. Switching color profiles didn’t change anything.
But hey, maybe there’s a fix I haven’t tried yet that works… I sure would hate to be proven wrong! No seriously, if someone has a fix for the dull colors I would likely start using Wayland again.
between sway, hyprland, and kde I’ve never seen this color issue you’re describing, on three different laptop displays and one external monitor. maybe there’s something else going on?
I’m running Gnome on Nobara, switching between Wayland and Xorg there’s a noticable difference in the vibrancy of the colors. Xorg and Windows both look fine, it’s specifically under Wayland that everything dulls out. Multiple displays, displayport/hdmi makes no difference.
That said, this problem doesn’t affect everyone. Makes it much harder to troubleshoot. Color profiles don’t alter anything, I don’t have an HDR display and most of the forums I’ve found regarding this are having issues with HDR.
I have no idea at this point and limited free time to work on it when Xorg has been working fine. That said, I figured I’d throw it out there in a thread where people are praising Wayland to see if someone knows something I’ve missed. XD

not sure what you’re talking about, but I’ve got colors on my PC xd
Is Hercules even supported any more?
My high resolution EGA display has all kinds of colors. Up to 16 at once, even.
Was the last time you read or heard anything about Wayland 15 years ago?

Try KDE with both and see if you get the same issue?
Nov 2024 actually.
My Wayland is now in Technicolor, but it cost me a few shillings.
It’s still vaporware but most compositors implement all features now.
As for colors, HDR works with AMD GPUs.
