Exported jpg from gimp, colours all wrong, what did I do?

So how did you load the image in Gimp?

A simple file-manager open-with. And I don’t think I ever changed any of the default options

see GIMP 2.10.34 export suddenly dark - solved - #4 by xpatUSA

Problem solved: I had changed the import preference to “keep” the image’s built-in color profile. After changing it back to always convert to the GIMP built-in color profile, the image exported correctly from linear precision without going dark.

I don’t think that I changed it, but, iirc, the preferences are set to keep the image built-in profile. So I’ll head off and investigate that. Thanks!
