Vivaldi (Chrome) ruining website colors I recently tried Vivaldi browser and noticed my website’s colors looked wrong. Vivaldi’s (or any Chrome-based browser) aggressive color management adjusts CSS colors based on your monitor’s color profile (ICC) to optimize it for your display. I fixed this by changing Force color profile to sRGB in vivaldi://flags or chrome://flags. Light-mode: left is correct. Dark-mode: left is correct. chrome note tech vivaldi 01 Jun 2026
