#b100fe and #b71cfe. Differences are in the red and green channels.
It’s true.
Fun fact, most people in the world are trichromats, they have 3 types of colour sensors in their eyes. One type of colourblindness that only affects men is where they only have 2 types of sensor and are dichromats - the gene is only found in the X chromosome, and it’s impossible for women with two X chromosomes to get the deficiency. However, it’s possible for women to get super genes and have 4 types of sensor, making them quadchromats. These ladies can see colours in between two other colours, that no one else can see. However, because the world is built by and for trichromats, this gift goes by largely unknown even by the people who have it.
It is possible for women to be colorblind (if their father is colorblind and their mother is a carrier for the gene).
It is also possible for men to be tetrachromats if they have XXY genes (called Klinefelter syndrome).
It’s not actually called quadchromatism but tetrachromatism.
I once knew a girl who was colorblind. Both her parents were too. It’s rare but it can happen.
How the mom got colorblind?
Food poisoning
the gene for red green color blindness is carried on the X chromosome so a woman can have it it is just very rare. Now blue yellow color blindness is much much rarer and carried on a different chromosome so men and women have it equally
I didn’t know her well enough to ask. She was a friend of a friend, and this was over a decade and a half ago.
My daughter has the super eyes. She looooves pointing out different colors that “daddy can’t see!” Lol.

I’m a male designer, and have a good eye for color. Am I a mutuant?
No, you just think you’re good. 😊
They’re different. The one of the right seems… lighter? Man, fuck me if I’m just making shit up.
Edit: I was right! https://lemmy.world/comment/4517261
One is slightly brighter/more magenta-esque
But yeah there’s basically no difference
Left is #b100fe and right is #b71cfe
Left is darker than the right one
I mentally reached for Ctrl+Shift+C
Obviously white and gold
Black and blue!
Stop it Yanny
Don’t you mean Laurel?
they are the same colour tho?
that’s better, thanks
Not as far as my eyes can tell. There is a slight difference.
Why do is see the difference in the colors?
colorblindness entered the chat
I think I read something before about how women’s eyes are better at differentiating colors but men’s eyes are better at detecting movement.
Maybe that’s why I’m always like “how did you not find this thing, it’s sitting right there!” all the time.
I think it’s a cultural thing. In uni we had to learn how to titrate to figure out concentrations and we had to look out for sudden color changes to figure out the concentration of a solution. Well, I had a professor who’d constantly revel in the fact that men often had trouble with this, but in a toxic way.
I know that women are constantly exposed to different tones and shades from using makeup. And I understood the assignment because I had studied some graphic design earlier and had to tell colors apart. Whet she didn’t get was that I only needed a color reference all along! I literally did not know what color it was supposed to be and she didn’t bother to explain lol

You mean you can’t almost immediately tell the left is barely darker than the right?
No it’s not! move phone closer, then further away… No it’s not! Is it?!
i think the one on the right is brighter, not sure though
After staring for long enough I’ve decided that left is slightly more purple and right slightly more pink

Yes
