Most monitors that... Macs have? As a Windows/Linux user, none of the monitors I've used as my daily driver are wide-gamut. The only wide-gamut monitor I've really seen was in my university's computer lab. It displayed every color a bit more brightly, and my laptop didn't desaturate colors to compensate.
> Firefox does not implement the spec that restricts CSS colors to sRGB. Instead, it just throws the raw RGB coordinates on the screen, so e.g. rgb(100% 0% 0%) is the brightest red your screen can display. While this may seem like a superior solution, it’s incredibly inconsistent: specifying a color is approximate at best, since every screen displays it differently. By restricting CSS colors to a known color space (sRGB) we gained device independence. LCH and Lab are also device independent as they are based on actual measured color.
Yeah that explains why.
- skavi 6y agoAny smartphone with an OLED or high end LCD is physically capable of displaying more than sRGB. That’s a pretty decent number of devices. Android is awful for color management though, if the OEM even implements it.
