    White to black, because people say that white and black aren’t colours.

    But I just say “FFFFFFuck y000000u!”

      They’re not hues, but they are colors, which is a combination of hue, saturation, and brightness.

          That’s not the kind of diagonal I expected. I thought it would be something like this:

    Dunno if it counts as one or three gradients, but I really like this green/brown/gold gradations.

      That reminds me of swimming in rivers in the forest, the sand looks golden like that through the water

        Yeah, it’s mostly a “nature” gradient. Besides the sand the golden part also gets close to fallen leaves.

        I used this gradient a lot of times when making websites in the past (before CSS was a thing, to give you an idea on how long it was), as it’s colourful without being flashy.

    The colors that appear in the sky during a sunset. Beautiful blues, purples and oranges, slowly dimming until it disappears over the horizon.

    The background of all my devices is a gradient version of the bisexual flag, so I guess that’d be my fav gradient!

    ‘videogame ice effect’

    I seriously love the over-the-top ice shaders used in all those early 2000s games. Ice always looked amazing, just this super bright white with pearlescent whitish-blue highlights that shimmered at odd angles and stuff. It’s so cool.

    Like the bridge tunnel in IceFields from HaloPC in 2003.

    Or the almost-fully-transparent ice tunnel in Crysis Warhead (and firefall. Firefall had AMAZING ice shaders, it had some direction-based visual stuff going on where it had volumetric speckles all throuought the foot-thick ice).

    Honestly: ice-themed anything looks cool to me, color-wise
