Google Sheets pulls off a rainbow hack in honour of Pride Month, Google's Easter Egg known

In honour of "Pride Month" and reverence to the LGBTQ community, Google has coined a method wherein the entire Google Sheet turns into rainbow colours that signify LGBTQ pride. By adding a special function to the row of 'A1' cells in Google spreadsheet, a drab black and white page converts into a colourful rainbow sheet celebrating Pride Month.

Upon typing 'PRIDE' across the first rows in a spreadsheet, Google's coveted Easter Egg turns a dull spreadsheet into a rainbow coloured celebration in honour of the LGBTQ community and the month of June which is popularly known as Pride Month. 

Twitter designer Paul discovered the latest trick and published it on his handle. Tech-savvy users and developers were pleasantly surprised with Google's nod to the LGBTQ community via the latest Easter Egg. 

Here's how netizens reacted to this latest discovery -
