Wow, that's very insightful, and explains the dev's response. He genuinely thought he was being insulted.
This says a lot about me, but I empathize with that. That the reason I strive to be perfect in everything is that I feel like I'm under attack. Illogically, because I was, as a child, continually insulted.
It's a shitty way of living, trust me. But I get it.
I went and looked at the issue, and the title is not "colors are wrong" but it is "Colors don't look as they should". Interesting how everyone comes away with what they this was said. Says a lot about the dev who responded, really.
