As someone who is color blind, thank you for making a fake test that I can actually read. :-)

lol, I always wondered if it worked. What exactly is the degree of your condition? If you don't mind me asking.

There are different types of color blindness. Some colorblind might still be able to read this while another group cannot.

Yeah that's kinda what I was asking him about but I wasn't sure exactly how to frame the question. I should have asked what colors give him trouble, that'd be more succinct.

I'm pretty sure anyone can read this test. Here, I'll check.

yes but, i bet all color blind can see it.

THIS IS A JOKE MEME AND NOT USING MEDICALLY PROVEN shades of pure red/green with correct luma

I could tell that color blind people might still be able to see it.

I did not reverse filter out red and green in photoshop, but I have my suspicions

Its complex to verify using tools because you need to keep all blue, turn red and green both into green and use proper luma percent based on cone frequencies of eye, then merge back the final green back mixed with blue and save file.

Luma percents for human retina per pixel adjust ; ((0.299R + 0.587G) + B) [ignores discrete rods effect] : https://www.w3.org/TR/AERT/#color-contrast

also humans have 6 different genes for red cones, and that equation is centerline ave red luma in average human

many of these colorblind tests mix in BLACK ink, to avoid issues with fading colors (red ink) being discernible earlier, than without shades of grey added.

I have "deuteranomaly", which is partial color blindness. It's not the most common form but it's pretty close.

Note that something around 10% of men are partially color blind, and many don't even know it.

Interesting, I just looked it up. I appreciate you sharing, thanks.

There are like 5 different types of colorblind and they're all of varying degrees. So a person with the same colorblind type as another person may be able to see some shades of this but not others which the second person can.

ANNOUNCEMENT: I AM COLORBLIND. FUCK ME.

Also colorblind is retarded. To be colorblind means you are literally blind. It should be hueblind.

> hueblind.

More appropriate I think. Colorblind is probably easier so you don't have to keep explaining what hue means to all the mental midgets.

Just don't let them drive. They seem to confuse green and red lights.

I can see red fine, but the green of traffic lights is practically identical to mercury streetlights. If I see it's a traffic light, no problem (green is always on the bottom) but when driving through a strange town at night it's unsettling to see a "streetlight" turn red on you.

Only visible to colorblind people. Color vision deficient people have a tendency to better night vision and, in some situations, they can perceive variations in luminosity that color-sighted people could not.

Whoa, that's pretty neat, I never knew about that. It makes sense though, the brain will want to emphasize some visual details in the absence of others.

Lol, that pic could say "fuck you" and I'd never know.

This is why camouflage doesn't work nearly as well to colorblind people. As a kid I never understood why people would say wearing camouflage makes it harder to see you. I just thought that was the weirdest thing because I never had any problem seeing camouflage in the brush.
