What is HDR support on Linux like these days?
Pretty good for KDE and GNOME at least. Both DEs support HDR monitors with pretty easy setup now. MPV and GNOME Videos both support HDR for your properly obtained movie files, idk about KDE's video player. Browser support is still lagging, experimental HDR on Firefox usually works for videos when enabled but photos less so. Photography tools like Darktable and GIMP do not support it yet.
HDR for video games running on proton is something I haven't tried enough to tell you. I know people have it working, but I think it sometimes requires messing about with proton environment variables.
That kinda stuff also gets into the area where its harder to tell which screen is better, resolution and refresh rate are easy stats to look at.
Once you learn about the color gamuts of different displays and the HDR certifications they are also easy stats to look at. It all depends on your priorities though. Whether it's maximizing refresh rate and fps for competitive games or doing art or having high resolution for productivity, it all changes the tradeoffs.
Many monitors nowadays support 100% DCI-P3 color gamut and that's what most HDR media is mastered for, so that's a pretty easy one to look for. The VESA DisplayHDR certifications also make it easy. True Black means the contrast ratio is very good for dark detail like with OLED. The number of the certification is the peak brightness in nits that the display can reasonably produce. So DisplayHDR True Black 600 would mean good contrast and 600 nit peak brightness. And a DisplayHDR 1600 would be able to go much brighter, but not necessarily have inky blacks like an OLED.

Why is everyone so concerned with passthrough these days? MR apps are the worst XR apps of them all

I am on the nice monitor bandwagon and I strongly recommend geting something with a VESA DisplayHDR True Black certification. Also 4K is very enjoyable if you can get it, you can always decrease resolution for FPS when gaming but the crispness of text and interfaces while doing desktop things is very nice.

You dry off with toilet paper. The bidet is for cleaning

Sorry but how is this whataboutism? It's looking into the source for the information in the article

I refuse to take anyone’s side that murders innocent people. Children should NEVER be victims of political wars. When politicians that make these decisions put their own children in the line of fire, then tell me “I should really take a side”.
So you should really have a side by now.

With Trump it's a given. His ideology naturally leads to genocidal behavior
