HDR gaming in Bazzite - Help please

Can someone please explain to me like I'm 10 the best practice on how to get HDR working correctly for compatible games in Steam (e.g. The Witcher 3, Cyberpunk, etc.) I've tried the Bazzite wiki, ChatGPT and reddit but still can't figure it out.

I turned on HDR in my Display Configuration (I can see the LG monitor HDR pop up) but from there on, I cannot find any setting on Steam for HDR, and not even HDR toggel inside The Witcher 3 game video settings.
I've seen many commands floating around but I'd like to understand how this works instead just pasting random launch commands from the internet in my Terminal or Steam.

Thank you in advance!
Solution
Update: It's working now! I had to download Proton GE (latest) from Proton Plus (Bazaar app), forced compatibility on Steam to Proton GE latest, and copied this command in the Launch Options:

PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 ENABLE_HDR_WSI=1 %command%
and boom! I'm galloping into the gorgeous HDR sunset with Roach at 70 fps with 4K and Raytracing on quality. Game never looked better.
