Why do so many people skip the color proofing step before posting?

I keep seeing art that looks great on a phone but totally washed out on a monitor, especially with those bright neon pinks. My friend in Seattle had her whole piece look wrong on a gallery screen because she only checked it on her laptop. Do you have a go-to monitor or method to make sure colors stay true across different devices?

Honestly, it's probably just impatience. People want to post the finished thing right away. Maybe try a quick check on a cheap tablet or a different phone screen first?

That extra step just adds more work for no real gain. Most people view content on the same device they create it on anyway. It's overthinking a simple problem.

Just check on a second screen, any screen.
