Can’t wait to try out the official version of GNOME VRR after using the patched mutter-vrr for several years now. It’s a very solid VRR implementation and I feel it’s better than KDE’s. It’s about time it made it into an actual GNOME release. Just wish they would’ve fully committed and added the VRR toggle in settings rather than hide it behind an experimental flag. Hopefully GNOME 47 moves it out of experimental.
It’s generally used in gaming to sync content FPS with display refresh rate, which can help prevent tearing (esp with vsync) and input latency / display jitter for when content can’t sync to a denomination of your panel’s refresh rate
VRR has landed!!!

Meaning “Variable refresh rates” for smoother video performance. Had to look it up.
