Personally I think these days ideally you should be able to just publish in Rec2020 and let devices convert that to their native colorspace. I'd consider AdobeR

Personally I think these days ideally you should be able to just publish in Rec2020 and let devices convert that to their native colorspace. I'd consider AdobeRGB purely legacy thing that doesn't really have relevance these days. Display-P3 makes sense if you are living and targeting exclusively Apple ecosystem, but not much otherwise. ProPhoto is good in itself, but idk if it really makes sense to have separate processing (rgb) colorspace anymore when Rec2020 is already so wide. Of course if you have working ProPhoto workflow then I suppose it doesn't make sense to change it.
- adrian_b 3y agoI agree with you, except that Display P3 is not exclusive to Apple. A lot of monitors from most vendors support Display P3, even if it is usually named slightly erroneously as DCI P3. Display P3 differs from the original DCI P3 specification by having the same white color and the same gamma as sRGB, which is convenient for the manufacturers because all such monitors can be switched between the sRGB mode (which is normally the default mode) and the Display P3 mode. Nonetheless, even if today most people that have something better than junk sRGB displays have Display P3 monitors (many even without knowing this, because they have not attempted to change the default sRGB color space of their monitors), images or movies should be distributed as you say, using the Rec. 2020 color space, so that those with the best displays shall be able to see the best available quality of the image, while the others will be able to see an image with a quality as good as allowed by their displays.
