Actual results:

Similar color with Safari


Expected results:

The result is different and it seems Safari is right as when I change macOS color profile, I see Firefox and Chrome have less respect for system color profile setting.

I have been experiencing this bug as well. Firefox seems to ignore color management on P3, everything has a higher saturation than it should be. Is there a workaround for this? I have tried changing some settings in about:config, but that did not change anything.

I have also noticed that some photos look really bad in Firefox, like the colours have been drained. But when I download them they look much better when opened in Preview, and if I open the same image URL in Safari it also looks just as colourful as in Preview.
