Nothing done between original and exported ?
Apart from the sightly larger image size. 1607x683 -> 1611x685 There must have been something, there is a degree of combing in the exported image with associated colour loss. Down from 8113 to 4561. You can see in the color-cube analysis Colors -> Info -> Colorcube Analysis
I took your original, exported as a png from Gimp and analyzed with imagemagick.
Changes in your export, no changes in my export. Some change in blue and green.
Not able to reproduce your change.
Subjectively, viewing your before and after images in a linux image viewer, I see not difference, Using Windows ? Windows image viewer has been known to impose its own 'tweaks'.
If you do decide to do any editing, try bumping the precision up Image -> Precision 32 bit FP although with that type of dark image, some loss of colour is going to occur.
Are there any settings you suggest I change to get nearly identical colors to original file? I'm not great with technical things in gimp so I don't even know where to begin.
Changing precision from 8bits to 32 didn't help sadly.
I just wanted to do a minor edit to the image to use as my background, but again without changing anything and just exporting it introduces more artifacts sadly.
