It seems like when I view hdr content (typically I see this on youtube, but have also seen it on some image viewer apps) it makes content insanely bright, but dims everything else, and then it flickers when I switch away from the HDR content. There has to be a way to disable this... right?

It doesn’t happen on my mac. It should not dim your UI too much.– hym3242Commented Sep 9 at 0:43
