> colors seem to be more accurate on Wayland That's odd. The one difference I can think of is that if your screen is not native sRGB, it likely needs to be color managed for colors to display correctly. Currently, Gnome on Wayland doesn't support color management*, while Gnome on X does. So it's possible that you are just not used to seeing the managed colors for your screen. Edit: or maybe you have an HDR screen (lucky you!) - not sure what the state of play is for that. On the other hand, it's also possible that Gnome's colord color management software is not using the correct profile for your screen. It is capable of pulling an appropriate profile based on your screen's EDID, but this will be - at best - an approximation of your screen's actual profile. A poor profile can be worse than no profile at all. * The fault is with Wayland, which still doesn't support a color management protocol for applications running in it. If I remember correctly, Gnome at least loads your profile into your video card's lookup table so that you get white point and gamma correction, but most of the heavy lifting comes from color management supporting applications applying the profile to the colors they display. The protocol to allow them to do that under Wayland doesn't exist yet: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/14 https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/m...
