    How did that one red appear? It used to be 0 red before i made the screenshot, cropped it and uploaded to lemmy

      There would have been a bunch of image compression and transcoding along the way. Are the other values as expected?

        I only remember that the red was 0 and that the other values were close

        When using the color picker i used to get this image on the uploaded image(that i redownloaded), it said rgb(0, 122, 133). I copied that color and used another website to make the screenshot so either the 2 websites i used are wrong, the method you used is wrong, or something strange is happening

          It’s a jpeg, it has lossy compression. There could be compression at any point in that chain, most likely right on creation of the screenshot, storage on your lemmy instance, download to my device, upload to my colour picker…

          There are a lot of steps in converting color spaces to suit people’s individual monitors and in compressing files to be stored on web servers.

          Sometimes rounding errors happen. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
