High contrast problem on various apps
I installed ubuntu about a week ago.
The first time I encountered this problem was when I installed Chrome. The colors looked oversaturated/with a lot of contrast, but I quickly found a solution by setting chrome://flags/#force-color-profile to sRGB
Later, I installed GitKraken and the colors had the same problem. This time I didn't find a solution, so I shrugged it.
Now the problem repeats in other apps like Polarr, Spotify, Darktable and Skype. In other apps like Sublime Text, VSCode and Postman this problem doesn't appear.
Also when I make screenshots, the image comes out over-saturated / with a lot of contrast.
Some screenshots for comparison:
Polarr photo editor

display bug-reporting colors
