Is this green or blue?

  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.

    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.

      There would have been a bunch of image compression and transcoding along the way. Are the other values as expected?

  You and your friend can both do the test above and see exactly where your breakpoints are.

    The problem was that for some colors i would say its blue and they would say its green, but for other colors i would say its green and they would say its blue

    This annoys me. It keeps showing me cyan, but only giving me the options of green or blue. Cyan is neither. It’s freaking cyan! It’s a subtractive primary colour!

    (Don’t get me started on art teachers insisting the primary colours for paint are red, yellow and blue. Naff off with that crap. Go look at printer ink, then naff right off again.)

    This is the scientifically correct answer. Any other observance should be chalked up to differing displays, color temp settings, or just differing color reception in a person’s eyes. Numerically, it’s blue.

      It’s a good example of how to explain Intelligence vs Wisdom in RPG’s. An intelligent person knows how to find the correct answer. A wise person knows how to avoid debating opinions with their spouse.

      That also depends on the color accuracy of your device.

      We know what the intent of the color was now but not what is actually displayed.

  Tourqoise which means more into blue than teal would be

  But what im seeing may be influenced by display settings, we all are probably looking at slightly different colours.

  Green. I often have the same argument about my jacket

  • Hoimo@ani.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    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.

  This is definitely more blue than green, but it’s a dark cyan or turquoise. Calling it blue or green implies otherwise.

• KeenFlame@feddit.nu ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

  It’s called teal when it’s between green and blue because of this very type of argument.

• KoboldCoterie@pawb.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

  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.
