I spent 2 years rendering in sRGB before realizing my monitor was set to Adobe RGB

I was in a Discord call last month and someone asked why my blues looked crushed compared to theirs. After 20 minutes of comparing settings I found my monitor had been in Adobe RGB since I bought it. How many of you actually calibrate your screens before posting work?

Ive had the same sRGB versus Adobe RGB panic but honestly 90% of the people looking at your work are on uncalibrated phones or laptops anyway. Unless you do serious print work its just not worth stressing over a few shades off. So what if your blues are a little crushed nobody is analyzing your stuff with a colorimeter.

Is it really that big of a deal though?
