Try to set gfx.color_management.native_srgb => true on the about:config page.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. On the warning page, you can click "Accept the Risk and Continue" to open about:config.

Hi, I'm having the same problem, only that I use Firefox for M1 MacMini. My issue is that on YouTube every video starts normal but as soon as I let go of the mouse it gets way brighter / colors get washed out. The moment I move the mouse a little bit the colors get normal and as soon as I stop moving the mouse they get washed out again. The exact same problem appears in Safari too, but never on Chrome.
