Does anyone know how to prevent this? It doesn’t lose as much colour if I just screenshot it. But even the screenshot on the left is still slightly more muted than the original photo. I appreciate you taking time to respond. If you can’t or don’t know what this is, that’s okay too.

Looks like the color space is being read improperly somewhere

I have the “Dark Reader” extension in my browser, that converts web pages from their usual dark-on-light into light-on-dark. Occasionally, it also flips colors in certain images, and even streaming videos.

Do you have any browser extensions installed that might affect color? A blue-blocker, for instance?

Colorspace issues, surely.

Your Goblincore post also looks grey on my machine, so it’s probably server-side.

You could try copy-pasting into another program, saving it from there, and crossing your fingers.

What did you shoot the picture on?

What happens if you pull the image into an image editor?

Open in GIMP. Create a new image of the same height and width. Copy the original image and paste on top of the new image. Export the new image as jpeg.

I know it’s a hassle but that process should absolutely make sure to remove any colorspace or hdr nonsense that is getting messed up.
