I figure this question is more relevant to this forum instead of the tech forum so I'll make a random thread here.
I bought a Lutron CL (TGCL-153PH-IV) dimmer switch that looks like this to control my new LED in my living room

My issue is that the on/off switch is reversed up position is off and down is on,no clue why. The dimmer works fine, up is brighter, down is dimmer.
It's a single pole switch (though capable of 3-way). IDK if this matters but the switch right next to it and on the same circuit that controls my kitchen lights is in a 3-way setup and it's still working like normal too.
Before I put the dimmer in there was a normal single pole switch there instead and it worked fine.
When I replaced that with the dimmer I wired the dimmer identical to the switch it was replacing.
Any idea what's causing this? I glanced over the manual and didn't see anything.
Is my shit broke and needs to be replaced? Is it because I have too many 3-way switches on a circuit?
My electrical knowledge is low but I'm learning
