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.

Color management ensures accurate and identical color reproduction across display devices. It's extremely important for artists and designers, and its absence in Wayland is a deal breaker for them.
No calibration yet.
You don't need a protocol for profiling, it's merely a nicer user experience if you have one.
I still wish we had display calibrators that operated over DDC on linux T.T well, ddcui helps, but it's not automagic T.T
Oh yeah I've seen issues in KDE Wayland for it lately, namely on brightness. It's gone since.
