[Bug 938751] Re: Images are washed out or colors are skewed in some apps (particularly Image Viewer and Chrome)

 

Hello, I experienced this issue as well (EOG 42 on Pop!_OS/Ubuntu 22.04
LTS). I just described it here:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/eog/-/issues/289

I solved the issue by disabling the auto-generated colour profile in the
gnome settings.

As I said in the description, I can't assess if this issue is related to
some specific monitors (I have a ThinkPad T480 monitor), or it's a
common problem.
