Not this crap again. It depends on your screens lighting but it is blue and black

The illusion It's actually caused by something called "color constancy."
I'm a perception researcher. If you "believe/perceive" the dress to be in shadows, low lighting, it's white and gold.
If you believe the dress is in bright light. You see blue and black.
Your brain will adjust color based on its perceived relationship to environment lighting.

just look at the HSL profile of a blue pixel. Surprise, it's blue.

I've been looking at this photo for like 10 years and even though I know for a fact that it's blue and black I only ever see white and gold

Same for me, across dozens of screens and different apartments and at school and... I don't think it's just the lighting

The Lemmy picture is blue/black for me while Wikipedia is white/gold. Is it the same picture? Or is because Lemmy fully supports dark mode while my browser doesn't?

This spread like a wildfire on Facebook like 10 years ago, i assume people are just so done with it.

In the original picture I could only ever see white & gold, but in this photo you post I can see either way.

We've already been through this, we don't need it again. I've seen both from the same file, silly rage-bait optical illusion.
