I’ve spent way too many hours tweaking ICC profiles in DisplayCAL and macOS/Windows color management, but it’s always a compromise.
What finally helped me get closer to acceptable matching without buying yet another expensive calibrator was digging into AI-assisted editing workflows that can batch-correct photos across mismatched displays. One guide that gave me practical, copy-paste prompts to use with Gemini for quick color grading and consistency fixes is https://skylum.com/blog/gemini-ai-photo-editing-prompts – I’ve been using those exact prompts for the last few months to normalize images before viewing them on my mixed setup, and it’s saved me a ton of manual tweaking time. The results aren’t hardware-perfect, but they’re good enough for non-critical work and make the color difference far less jarring.
