Linux people,

Is there some way to tint my screen/a specific window a custom color on Wayland? I'm playing Stalker 2 and I'd like to take a tiny bit of red out of the dawn/dusk scenes (which are weirdly purple if you ask me)

Boosts appreciated for visibility!

@AminiAllight i vaguely recall that this is one of those things that wayland makes it specifically difficult to do and thus normally needs to be done in the compositor, but you could see if reshade works on linux. maybe run it and stalker in wine?

@aeva I considered reshade but thought it would be a pain to set up

Wayland absolutely makes this kind of thing harder than it was under X11. I have found some limited color control via wlr_gamma_control_unstable_v1 (this seems to be how things like redshift are meant to work on Wayland) but I have no idea what the support picture looks like

If somebody doesn't come along with my dream fix I'll probably write a utility that uses it and find out for myself
