... Rozumiem że jeżeli zainstaluję system MacOS to dostrzegę różnicę pomiędzy Windowsem a MacOS. Tak się zastanawiam
czy to będzie duża różnica w wyświetleniu kolorów czy nikła różnica.
Biorąc powyższe tak dosłownie, to moim zdaniem różnicy nie będzie żadnej.
MacOS has color managed desktop. This could be helpful or a nightmare.
An example, a widegamut (GB-LED, QLED... it does not matter). Since Windows desktop is not color managed, it you have an icon or open a web in Inenert explorer, an sRGB image "255" red is going to be displayed as "monitor's native gamut 255 red". Strong oversaturation. Same for MS office or MS paint.
On the other hand macOS provides you a color managed desktop, so that sRGB 255 red is reencoded to other RGB values that in your monitors native colorspace match sRGB 255 color coordinates.
...but there is a probem. MacOS color engine is broken since 3 or 4 major OS versions. It cannot work properly with not idealized profiles, otherwise severe grey color tint artifacts and black crush arise in apps that use macOS color engine. Well documented issue. You cannot use anything different from 1xTRC single curve matrix balckpoint compensation profile (these are DisplayCAL names, other software may have other names for the same).
A lot of multiplatform aplilcations like Photoshop, GIMP ort firefox provide their own color management engine. For those applications the same display will render the same colors in Windows or macOS.
It's some kind of user preference about if a color managed desktop is useful or not. For casual office/browsing work color managed desktop while working with a widegamut display is appreciated... but you can set "sRGB" OSD mode in any advancved monitor, even with HW calibaryion CALx preset... so it is not really an issue for WIndows + external displays. On widegamut laptops it could be a problem but most manufacturer like those XPS dell widegamut laptops provide soe application for simple gamut emulation like sRGB.
I mean... unless you are a computer unfriendly user, macOS color managed desktop has no advantage over WIndows if you have a widegaut
and you know how to use it.
Actually macOS color managed desktop could be a problem. For example, let's say that you own a PA272W. It's a very good reliable widegamut without software issues. That display has a LUT3D hable to emulate other device colorspaces, even non idealized ones (Eizo CS or Dells or Benq lut-matrix HW calibration can only emulate "ideal" colorspaces like sRGB/AdobeRGB co custom but idealized boundaries xy gamut triangle).
You can use that functionality with expensive software like Lightillusion or simple but useful on the fly gamut emulation with Multiprofiler.
With Multiprofiler + no color managed desktop (windows) you can see things like you are going to see in a non color managed tablet or mobile phone wthout caring about if app is not color managed.
That is useful for pro users that need it.
Of course youcan do the same with Photoshop softproof, but having that in HW you can see how a tablet app is going to look while you code it and run it in a mobile OS emulator in that programming enviroment.
So ... it's some kind of user preference if it iw better or worse to have a color managed deskop.
From an advanced user perspective (mine) I do not like it since it limits what I can do (emulate other devices screen). If I want to browse I can use Firefox which can be used with a full color management configuration (although it has some probelms with Xrite software profiles, ArgyllCMS ones work OK). If I want to see an image I can use old image viewer (W10 newer Photos app is not color managed). If I use Adobe suite... it's color managed.
YMMV.
