I've recently swapped to firefox from chrome, and I noticed one major difference in how the browser manages color profiles. While chrome uses the color profile per monitor, and updates when a window goes form one to the other, Firefox seems to only use the color profile from the first monitor regardless of which monitor i am on.

After some digging, I mange to find a guide (https://cameratico.com/guides/firefox-color-management/) that shows how to setup firefox to use an ICC profile. However, I can't seem to find a way to get Firefox to use ICC profile per monitor.

Is there a way?

Does it work better if you disable hardware acceleration in Firefox?

Disabling hardware acceleration didn't seem to affect this in any way

I really doubt that the color management per monitor is implemented in Firefox.

Thanks for your reply. Seeing how that was reported 8 years ago, and there still isn't a fix yet. This is quite a disappointing. Guess I'm going back to chrome for now then.
