The thing with Windows is that it's very much set and forget with HDR. I don't bother with auto HDR since it isn't great, but I just enable HDR, and have RTX HDR handle non-HDR games. I don't really need to touch anything else or launch games in a specific way to get it working. I've tried VR with Linux but I've been spoiled by the accessibility of VD.
On most recent Plasma (KDE) I can confirm HDR also just works (tested on AMD). I do miss a contrast slider though, SDR titles seem a little bit bright.
Of course Nvidia didn't port "RTX HDR" yet. They're preoccupied fixing their driver mess by building a completely new one (NVK), so for the foreseeable future it's still better to run AMD with Linux.
