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.

if this changes all colors with a global filter the way that some games like Overwatch (used to) do, then it's really not going to help anyone. I'm red-green colorblind, so when something is highlighted in red it isn't as obvious to me as it is to people with normal vision. However, the fix isn't too globally mess with all the colors, the fix is to let me pick the highlight color so that I can choose what works best for me. Many games have figured this out long ago (thank you game devs!).
I have the same, why wouldnt this help?
Well, they do already have that as part of their normal theming options. There's just software where KDE's theming doesn't apply, like games and webpages, and best they can do for those, is to offer such filters...
