Thank you for the examples. I tried the one with a pink cake. Turns out that on my machine only web browsers are capable of displaying the image properly. All viewers (IrfanView, XnView, Nomacs, Windows Photos) and editors (Paint .NET, GIMP) that I've tried only showed the "washed out" picture.

Yeah. We were able to get buy-in from some big players. We cannot contact every group, though. My hope is since big players have bought in, others will hear the message and update their programs.

Sooooo file some bugs :D

Also, be kind to them. This literally launched yesterday.

The creator of photopea.com is very responsive to user suggestions. I’d recommend contacting him if you haven’t already.
It's interesting that Paint.NET supports the vivid image if you screenshot the cake (Win+Shift+S) and paste it. But, opening the PNG opens up the washed out picture.
Huh, for some reason GIMP doesn't even show the usual color space conversion dialog.
