Weird colors on Chrome/Linux

Viewed 9291

I'm experiencing a weird issue on Chrome 61 on Linux,

Colors on chrome are very different compared to others browsers:

enter image description here On the left this is Firefox, on the right Chrome

As you see, Chrome colors are not enough saturated.

The chrome internal color picker show the expected Hex value, but any other external color pickers indicates this is not the good red and yellow.

I've reset my chrome settings and removed all extensions, but this not solved my issue.

Did someone have experienced the same issue?

Thanks

Old thread, but I've realized this is a problem with Chromium & Electron based applications picking the wrong color profile. While all solutions mentioned here solve the problem for Chrome, the solution I've found fixes it for all Chromium/Electron based applications, such as VSCode & Discord.

Go to this Google Docs document and follow the 5 steps under "Using colormgr from the command line". This fixed the issue on all Chromium-based applications by setting sRGB as the default color profile.
