@qurlyjoe oh no, the photo on the right has a grey mask, making it look more different than it should.

@qurlyjoe nevertheless, the picture on the right looks off but that's how he sees himself in the mirror. Similarly, how I see myself in the mirror or in a videoconference looks normal to me but only to me!

@mjambon
I don’t do enough video conferencing for my image not to look weird to me, because it’s not what I see in the mirror.

@qurlyjoe I mean videoconferencing, like selfie mode on a camera, normally does the mirror flip just for you, allowing you to use it as a mirror. Meanwhile, the conference attendees see you normally.

@qurlyjoe I just checked with Google Meet to be sure... yes, it does this. Apparently, having no option to see the non-flipped image is a problem for some people: support.google.com/meet/thread
