Kinda wondering if you'd get different results for using a different display (especially of different technology)
This what I got from two consecutive tests anyways (weird that the percentage is different)
Your boundary is at hue 168, greener than 81% of the population. For you, turquoise is blue.
Your boundary is at hue 168, greener than 85% of the population. For you, turquoise is blue.
I got 176 on both phone and monitor.
The percentage is based on how many people have used the thing, so if it is suddenly popular and a lot more runs are completed it can shift the percentage.

Ohh now it makes sense, thanks
Definitely different depending on your screens. I tried it on my desktop monitor, which is fairly decently calibrated, and I got 192 (quite high - bluer than 98% of pop. at the time). It was basically impossible not to notice any hint of green tinge in the background. On my phone, I got 171 (bluer than 68% pop. at the time). I took the tests back to back.
I moved the window between my two desktop monitors just now, and my second monitor is not only older tech, but it's also not color-calibrated at all (or calibrated poorly). A lot of the greener-looking colors on my more accurate monitor looked sky blue on the other monitor.
Edit: eh... I just took it on my phone again and got 192 this time lol. It's probably because the colors close to the boundary don't fit into blue or green for me, I'd rather be able to select both/none. Being forced the choose one kinda makes it subjective to how I'm feeling about it at the time. But I know that's not really the point of this test.
I got 171 on my desktop monitor.
Shoot, I got significantly different results from two consecutive tests on the same device. I suspect the sequence of colors affects perception, too.
In my first run, I perceived greater differences between the sequential colors and I got a couple that were in the extremes, and got around 65% (I don't recall the hue number). The second run, many colors were only a little different from their predecessors, and I didn't get any really obviously blue or green - they were all subtle variations of turquoise, and I scored at 76% (177).
Depending on how shit your screen is, you'll even get a different result depending on how far above or below you it is.
My IPS is fine, my cheap LCD second screen shows a gradient from green to cyan for most of it.
That screen cost me a whopping £30 from CEX. They said it had dead pixels on one side, but on closer inspection, it appears to be either ink or blood.
I have the nightlight setting on my phone turned all the way up. Every color shown except the first one was green to me lmao
Your boundary is at hue 175, bluer than 65% of the population. For you, turquoise is green.
Actually hard, because I use to distinguish Cyan from Green and Blue, so categorizing it to either blue or green was a bit difficult
Yep, for me the test felt like if someone would ask me if orange is yellow or red
Well, which is it??
If you could hurry please, I dont have much time left
More like when does orange become red/yellow to you imo
I don't think turquoise and cyan are the same color. Are you saying you do?
Yup, maybe because of computer graphics; I tend to consider Cyan, Turquoise and Teal as some kind of synonyms (or really similar to eachother); ususally I call it when there is almost as much green as blue "Cyan"
When looking at definitions, there are not the same colors, but are still all different shades of Green and Blue (I don't personnaly recognize them well, so I consider them with the same name; like people call them Green or Blue here)
My rainbow wheel be like: Red - Orange - Yellow - Green - Cyan - Blue - Purple - Magenta - Red
Like for the pixels on your screen are RGB = Red, Green & Blue; and the paint in Inkjet printers are CYMK (Cyan, Yellow, Magenta, blacK)
graphic designer with the same problem. also got 175.
Test is flawed. Does not allow for demilitarized zone between blue and green!
This leads to blueward expansion by green and a preemptive war by blue!

You all need to get your eyes checked
Says the blue dude
Yo, listen up, here is the story
dude you literally can't see one of those colors
30 years on the internet, never seen so many people being wrong.
Perception isn't a straightforward answer that is "right" or "wrong"
On the internet, your perception is always wrong.
My perception is right.
Did I win?
If you did we both did, I hold no opinion on this matter like a true neutral you’ll never know where I stand on this debate!
J'ai fait le test et je trouverais intéressant de le refaire en changeant la luminosité/clareté des tons. Pour les tons clairs, dans le doute je choisi bleu, mais c'est possible que je fasse pas pareil pour les tons foncés.
Ouais je pense que le calibrage de l'écran joue beaucoup aussi, sur mon pc les trois dernières couleurs étaient les mêmes à mes yeux, à cause de mon écran un peu nul
our boundary is at hue 176, bluer than 75% of the population. For you, turquoise is green.
Je distingue ce que j'appelle en français, le bleu turquoïse et le vert turquoïse. Dans mon langage, c'est là que ce trouve la frontière entre les bleus et les verts.
Hue 174 a true neutral was my description
174 for me as well.
TIL I am bluer than 83% of the population.
I was bluer than 97%. I'm not color blind and never thought my color perception was anything other than average, before.
182 for me. Apparently I am picky about my blues
Doesn't the intensity of blue fade over the life of most OLED displays? Couldn't that skew the results?
Monitor quality and calibration will always affect these sorts of things but your results are probably close enough to reality
Guess my eyes are a Lil off
"Your boundary is at hue 185, bluer than 97% of the population. For you, turquoise is green."
Don't worry; this is a completely pointless test if you didn't have your monitor professionally calibrated beforehand.
Idk, 97% is pretty extreme
Cyan is blue, colour codes can eat my ass. At hue 167 in the test.
Cyan is specifically defined as the color halfway between green and blue. Is yellow red? Yellow has just as much green in it as Cyan.
megagreen gang
Your boundary is at hue 174, just like the population median. You're a true neutral.
Is this the new method to determine Alignments? Maybe Orange <-> Yellow for the other axis?
Chaotic evil : "purple is blue"
True neutral
Although the colors change every time so the result is different every time too
i feel like this needs like 5x as many data points before giving a result, also at some point to me the only correct answer would be "neither" because the middle point is just Cyan to me, which isn't blue and definitely isn't green, just like how orange isn't yellow but definitely isn't red.
That’s cause if you know name of colors with associated color, you more easily distinguish them, there was nice article in scientific american around that stuff. Anglos don’t typically separate for example light blue/cyan as a big color, and thus spend more time choosing lighter blue hue among others. This test is largely for funsies.
And 8 bit colors don’t have lots of space to do more datapoints tbh.
I think that the difficulty in deciding which to pick when the truth feels to be "neither" is an intended effect of the test. It would be interesting to see the results of a test that allowed for "neither" though
i don't think that's the case, the point of the website seems to quite clearly be seeing what shades people consider either colour, and if a shade is "neither" then that's the answer you want to track rather than polluting your data with forced false answers.
Much like Eiffel 65, I appear to be blue...
This is actually the opposite, as most of these hues appear green to you.
So you are blue, da ba di da ba die, but only in specific circumstances
Oh, then I guess only emotionally then. Thanks for the clarification.
So I found that I pretty reliably get 185ish if I don’t think about it and just click. Now what happens is the test gives you a blue blue or green green, then throws you color just a bit over the line opposite of your first then throws you colors the opposite but closer to that line back and forth about every time. Seems like my picks tend to be A, B, A, B, A, B pretty consistently, which lead to the same outcomes. Not intentional choices for me, but it feels like the shock of seeing a color variance compared to the last color makes it feel like it’s “more green” or “more blue” than the previous. I feel like they should have a sort of pallet (unintentional pun) cleanser in between each color to give a true test.
Absolutely. A quick gob of water in between the wines would be nice. I got 185 too
Does this exist for other colors? Would be interested to see the entire spectrum done like this.
hooray for the middle of the bell curve
Same here! I thought I'd have special eyes (in a bad way).
Both my runs were higher than the average, but the second run fell about where I would probably put the line if I manually did it (182). I think it depends on the samples you get (along with your device of course). Now, let's do one where we divide things into blue, blue-green, and green. I would think the lines would be a lot similar for most people, but who knows.
I got true neutral. My radical centrism strikes again.
I did it twice and got 164 and 165, greener than 95%. Idk man, shit just looks blue to me.
I got exactly 172 as well.
I wonder where they get their population distribution info
My bet is from the “submit results” button
167 here. I think the phrasing means I see a whole lotta blue
Mine is at 185. I have red/green colorblindness. Wonder if that pushes me more to the blue side?
Protan here, similar result.
Just shows that green / blue is too binary. Learn more colours
I've got 174. As I remember correctly categorizing colors in your mind depends on your native language (or just language used), and some may even categorize the hues on this gradient to more basic colors in their language (like in Russian: зелёный [zʲɪˈlʲɵnɨj], голубой [ɡəɫʊˈboj] and синий [ˈsʲinʲɪj]).
I think the boundary between the basic color equivalents for green, and blue (zielony /ʑɛˈlɔ.nɨ/ and niebieski /ɲɛˈbjɛs.ki/) in Polish are more moved more to the right, and that's why I got 174. But I wonder if I have repeated that test in my native Polish if the results would differ (so they are even more to the right).
Edit: I have manually changed strings on the website from English to Polish, making my mind to "think in Polish". The result is 179 so I think that theory checks out.
This is great! I’ve always felt my color recognition is different from my wife’s so now we can compare.
I get different results with each eye 🤔
Wow, this is cool
I got 84 too, looks like we see colors different from the normal people
I forgot I have night mode enabled on my phone, after turning it off I got closer to average, oops
I'm red green colorblind but ended up at 177, which is fairly close to the (as I see at least) middle while line dividing green and blue.
Which is surprising because I bought blue chopsticks in Japan, and my mother say they are mainly green, much to my frustration.
I got exactly the population median (174 iirc?)
This is silly, instantly it's not blue or green
The most interesting thing is my wife is 172, and I am 173. So I guess our blues are the same
I got 187? I have been playing I love hue a lot tho which may be skewing my perception
these questions are really hard to answer
I got exactly the same result
I got 161 then 169 for my blue boundary. looking at the chart, I definitely agree more with the latter
198 on my pixel 6 pro. I was honestly 50-50 on several. I do have some portions of three types of color deficiency, though none too severe.
Wife was 172 on same device.
Took it twice and got nearly opposite results. Split the difference?
172 itou, mais on dit bleu turquoise, donc il y a sans doute un côté culturel fort dans la délimitation
