The lighter color looks like a blue-ish white, but I can't see anything other than gold for the stripes.

MODERATORS
Its so funny that this meme has sparked the exact debate all over again.
Thants so cool i finally got to see both color version and how my brain blends between them. For anyone wondering how, I am in a dark room with the phone (darkmode lemmy) and it was looking white gold to me. But when I squish my eyes to darken the incoming screen light and blocking of the right light background with my thumb I could make it fade into blue with black stripes.
There was also this bro science take, which is debunked:
When you see white and gold you are happy and when you see black and blue you are depressed.
It was always black and blue, but I've always found it fun to switch back and forth between which color combination it was. It was also a fun phenomena, but I don't like that it was ten years+ ago now. Time moves a bit too fast.
