Chrome handles untagged colour profiles oddly, using the monitor's colour profile instead of sRGB. Firefox and Safari assume the image is in sRGB, then convert to the monitor profile there. When using a wide gamut display (such as the new 5k iMacs with P3 display), this causes the logo to appear significantly different in Chrome than in Safari. This issue does not exist in Windows as Windows will automatically assign an sRGB profile to untagged images. And though this is a Chrome bug, it affects the D logo much more significantly than most.

Is this still an issue with the current logo? If so, how do I fix this?

Doesn't appear to be an issue with the new logo as far as I can tell. I'll close the issue. At least part of the problem would have been that Safari and Chrome seem to display the color red in general differently, at least on the new P3 iMacs. -_-
