Description

Certain logos started standing out to me on LinkedIn as brighter/whiter than everything else around them.I dug in and found out this is accomplished by adding a gain-map to an existing JPEG, visible only on HDR screens like a newer MacBook Pro. LinkedIn is the only social network I've found that isn't stripping them out, but of course you serve them up on your own site.I worked with Claude Code to turn it into a little browser-based utility (no registration) and hope you find it useful!

Could you build this?

Yes It is a focused image manipulation utility that generates an ISO 21496-1 gain map JPEG or BT.2100 PQ color profile in the browser or via a lightweight backend image pipeline.

Discussion

20 comments analyzed.

Concerns raised: No user consent or ability to disable HDR on websites, Non-consensual brightness/display changes affect entire device, iOS lacks native control switch for HDR, Low power mode disables other features, not ideal workaround, Potential for abuse similar to auto-playing audio history

Feature requests: Browser-level controls to manage HDR content display, Gate HDR behind fullscreen mode or user permission prompt, OS-level toggle specifically for HDR (separate from low power mode), Website permission model like "allow this site to display HDR"
