This extra-bright-everything-on-HDR-screens crap makes me navigate away from sites every time.

Immediate irritation and if I could setup an adblock rule to stop it somehow, I would.

The worst cases give me the starting pangs of a headache, and make me adjust my display to account for it.

Can we somehow make it a rule that a website has to ask if they can blind me first?

The page says it should work on my phone but it doesn't. No difference between the SDR and HDR versions on my phone (S26 Ultra / Chrome).

It also depends on your screen brightness. In my case, if it’s set to maximum, there is no difference between SDR and HDR.

I’m known for having my brightness down to the minimum at all times. The demo page effect is very pronounced. Effectively, it is ignoring my system level preference which makes me hate it a lot.

Look at the bright side, if it starts to get really overused then maybe the other platforms like LinkedIn will start stripping them too.

and browsers might do so too

like something on the line of "if (image small || partially covered || mostly transparent) then don't use HDR"

Earlier quoted context omitted.

On the other hand it’s a great signal that whoever uses that is an obnoxious twat and should be plonked.

Plonked how many times?

Technically, you only need to plonk somebody once.

If you own an HDR display then your display preference was to be able to display HDR.

Settings > Accessibility > Display Text & Size > Reduce White Point
