The elitism mostly.
It's seen as complicated because linux users behave a certain way
Tell me about it. The Linux crowd here on Lemmy is so god damn annoying, and that makes me not want to switch.
(For one, Linux needs to get a lot better support for gaming GPUs and HDR monitors before I'd consider ditching Windows for good. I can't live without RTX HDR and the Nvidia Control Panel, but Linux supports neither. There's no SDR-to-HDR upscaling support in the Linux version of Firefox, either.)
HDR works on Linux:

No, the NVIDIA Control Panel is not available but there are nvidia-settings and nvidia-smi
Yes it does but there is no SDR-to-HDR conversion. You need at least the Nvidia App for that.
