The shading/brightness of signs changes depending on the direction they are facing instead of actual world lighting.
When placing signs facing different directions under the same daylight conditions, some signs appear brighter or darker even though there are no shadows or different light sources affecting them.
Steps to Reproduce:
Create a new world in Minecraft Java Edition 26.1.2. or pre-2
Place multiple signs facing different directions.
Compare the brightness/shading of the signs.
Rotate the signs and observe the lighting changes
