gazter @aussie.zone That's RGB 1, 122, 134.
So while it's slightly more blue than it is green, I would argue that by calling it one or the other, you are cutting yourself off from a whole spectrum of wondrous complexity. Needing to win an argument denies you the subtle beauty of expanding your view of the world, opening your eyes to the possibility that not only is the other side correct, but you are correct as well.

Hoimo @ani.social If that was the red-green distribution, no one would be arguing whether it was a greenish-red or a reddish-green, because we all know about yellow. OP's color is teal.

18 0 ReplyHoimo @ani.social I did two runs, the first ended at 177 (three more greens than 76%of respondents), the second at 174 (the exact median). I think the methodology is flawed, there's a little randomness at the threshold so you need to gather more data to be certain of a person's perception. You'll see that the same hue can seem bluer when it follows a strong green, or greener when it follows a weak green.
Edit: did a third run, this time staring at a white wall for 5 seconds between each color and responding as quickly as possible. Got 170, way over in the green. A lot of it looked like a pale blue sky.

This is definitely more blue than green, but it's a dark cyan or turquoise. Calling it blue or green implies otherwise.
17 1 ReplyKoboldCoterie @pawb.social
The RGB value for this color seems to be:
(0,122,133)
As such, it is slightly more blue than green, if that helps you win your argument. If not, you can just say it's "bluegreen" and only be half wrong.

Aka I wouldn't call it green and wouldn't call it blue. If you mean to what color it's more similar, it feels a bit blueish, but very slightly.
Also your surroundings to which your vision is adapted will probably affect your perception.

5 0 Replymoonlight @fedia.io Green is primary though, for additive color. For subtractive color, cyan is a primary color.
I think it's crazy how everyone acts like cyan doesn't exist. This original post is like saying, "is this [yellow] red or green?"
