    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 more mean that it needs to show you the same colour several times, before and after different colors each time, because right now my scores are jumping wildly between runs.

      ideally it should also show red between each hue, to reset your eyes and brain a bit.
