At home, no.  At work, we get them quite frequently.  They have an entire forum dedicated to reporting false positives - and they are quick to fix.

Interesting.
Anyway, off-topic!
:yes:

This is all very confusing, so Supermium isn't really fully Ungoogled, even the switch applied?

"The #ungoogled-supermium flag enables all of ungoogled-chromium's core functionality (and a bit more, but the NTP is functioning as expected). Sync is also an expected casualty. Some unintended side effects will be split off into #ungoogled-supermium-aggressive in the next release."

Someone checked? Again, "The #ungoogled-supermium flag enables all of ungoogled-chromium's core functionality".

Agreed, same here.  That is to say, on my XP, there is ZERO reason to run either in my Win10 systems.
Perhaps an "aero" or "glass" or "transparency" effect that XP would IGNORE?

re: "30% brighter"
All I can say is "don't care" - and that is 100% honesty.
Supermium crashes my XP - and again, zero reason to run in my Win10.

Citing "30%" does reveal BIAS - that is not a 30% difference.
The "authentic look" inactive tabs technically have a gradient color whereas all other tabs do not have a gradient.

But sure, out of curiosity, and being a three-day weekend, sure, I'll find a better "percentage" than throwing out a biased "30%" plucked-from-someone's-butt percentage.  :buehehe:

One minute...  I'll report back...

RGB values always range from 0,0,0 (pure black) to 255,255,255 (pure white).

For the active tab:
As a proportion, if 255 equals 100%, then 242 equals 94.9%.
ie, a 5.1% difference - nowhere near "30%".

For the inactive tab:
I suppose for establishing a "percent difference", an averaging of RGBs should serve our purpose.
For "worst case", we shall compare the non-gradient "your variant" to the dimmest "authentic look".
222+225+230 / 3 = 225.7
166+167+168 / 3 = 167
As a proportion, if 225.7 equals 100%, then 167 equals 74.0%.
Okay, I'll give you this one, the difference is 26.0%.  :cheerleader:

But it is a gradient, you have to average that in with the "best case" bright RGB and that one is "different" by only 17.9%.
So I would call the inactive tab "different" by only 22%
 - nowhere near "30%".

Granted, that is for the INACTIVE tab only.
I strongly suspect that those that "complain" about "brightness", it is the PURE WHITE ACTIVE TAB that they are "complaining" about.

There;s no Aero theme on that reported issue. It's a classic theme.

26 is pretty close to 30, I have the same issue, but not only with tabs, the fonts are brighter, too! Strange win32 has no comment.

In all, the "The authentic look" has a very close, proper colour representation to what I'd expect.

I have the issue on XP, too.

I'm starting to think win32 simply has a dull monitor, probably misconfigured videocard/driver setup. It's been reported too many times already, including that github report.

I disagree.  I myself would "ignore" these types of "reports" if I were win32.

You see, in life, we all place our own "scale" on things like this.

On a scale of 1 to 10, this "brightness difference" is a ZERO on my radar.  A zero on a scale of 1 to 10.

But the three people on this forum that love, love, love to talk "brightness", this issue is clearly a 12 to them.  A twelve on a scale of 1 to 10.

Besides, "it's not a bug, it's a feature."

 

:buehehe: Yeah, for those with a dead CCFL bulbs monitor. For me, Supermium lights up the whole room, I don't need to turn on the lights anymore, so yeah, again, a feature. Mind you, it's with the dark theme!

So it's not XP claissic theme bug only, I'm on Vista.

You don't have to agree or disagree with the facts. You don't take part in the development. but many thanks from all of us for the measurements!

What I really wonder is why the default Chromium values, the right ones, where changed by the developer?
