I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed that while on dark backgrounds, finer white details (such as white text and the cursor's white edges) are discolored. Some distinct examples:
Here are some examples of a blinking cursor that should be pure white but has a bluish-green tint:
Here is an example of where the cursor is discolored on the very left, but then looks normal if I move it a few pixels to the left:
In some apps, such as Microsoft Teams, all the text looks discolored because the font used has a lighter weight.
Again, all of this goes away if I am not using dedicated GPU. And taking a screenshot with dedicated GPU does not yield a snapshot that includes discoloration, so macOS doesn't "think" it's rendering anything but pure whiteness.
Before I go try to get this repaired or replaced, I'm curious to know if others have the same issue with white details on dark backgrounds like this.
Thanks!
- As I move my cursor slowly, pixel-by-pixel, I can actually make the leftmost column of pixels of the white cursor border seem to disappear
- The blinking cursor during text input (again, white on black) appears to be bluish-green, depending on where the cursor is at the moment
