As moderator I demand you answer

Amethyst and iris. These are pretty much my signature colors. But purples are like doggos: I love them all. 💜

"Klem," you may ask, "do you have a relevant eyeshadow palette in your collection?"

Of course I do!:

Where blurple

Midnight. Hope to get my car wrapped in this color one day.

Purple.

Asking for my favorite shade of any color with no other context is like asking "what's your favorite music note?"

Indigo and Iris look great to me, that said I love every purple

Psychedelic Bright

Violet, Iris, Psychedelic are probably top 3?

TF2 hat colours be like

Of those, by name? Ultra Violet.

When I would play Saints Row, that one looks closest to the colour I'd pick for all the cars and clothes. (If you're unfamiliar with the series, it's a gang-themed action RPG similar to GTA and made to compete with it when it was exclusive to PlayStation; the original Saints Row was Xbox exclusive, though the rest have been on all platforms. The Third Street Saints gang uses the colour purple primarily, likely because no major gang does.)

I demand you answer

I demand you provide more specifics :) Colour for what?

Cake frosting? Clothing? Wallpaper? Phone case?

No heliotrope? 😠

Mulberry. I remember picking the ripe berries and then helping to make homemade ink with my great aunt.

I find myself liking them all and imagining different scenarios they would work in and their personalities. Am I alone here?

All 👏 purples 👏 are 👏 beautiful 👏👏👏

But today, I'm really feeling that Russian

Indigo and ultra violet. I love dark purple

Indigo.

I am partial to blue, and indigo has a pleasing amount of blue, while still being distinctly purple.

Orchid and royal for me.

You will know it when I throw it.

Amethyst

Amethyst and midnight are tied for me.

I like psychedelic, violet, and amethyst the most (in that order).

Purples are my absolute favorite, though, so I like most of these.

Midnight is absolutely peak, IMO.

Hard choice for second, place, though.

Ultra Violet. Both in light, and in shade.

Lavender or Psychedelic

Plum and orchid

Quite a number of these seem mislabeled, or at least they don't match their namesake objects (e.g. lavender, lilac, grape)

That said, another vote for "iris"

Hands down psychedelic!

Byzantium.

eggplant

Wildberry

orchid <3

Plum or royal

Midnight, Iris.

Half psychedelic, half indigo. Also, I'm darn certain some of these can't be rightly labeled. Either that or the 'average' perception and memory of color names is way off, because I swear I've seen violet as a much darker shade. Also, godddddddang, who put them in this order? It's not alphabetical, it's not in similarity, it's not even in brightness/darkness.

I want more then one option. Can I pick the 3 colors from the bisexual flag?

Iris really pops

Plum? Or maybe grape?

I sorely miss periwinkle here. Iris and amethyst are close enough.

From yhose, violet and psychedelic, the rest are too dark or too cold

I think I have a shirt in Midnight, so that's my answer.

@LadyButterfly@piefed.blahaj.zone ...iris...

hard to pick but Light feels neat

I’m a fan of midnight and orchid personally.

Wildberry

Plum or Russian

I never claim to like any single colour.
It always has to be in contrast with something and depends upon the context.

For example in a GUI application, if I am making thin lines on black background, I would go with higher Luminance colours.
If I am making 2 large areas side-by-side, separated by colour, then I am most probably going with a very slight difference in Luminance.

Then it also depends upon the screen. I like amber lines on a black background, but have never seen a satisfactory amber on my LCD display. I have seen CRTs do that better. And the most satisfying amber I have seen is that of a CFL at night, where even the colour of the wall behind it, affected the impression (not a screen, but a lighting fixture), so essentially a gradient.

Mauve maybe. Hard to choose all so good

Indigo, then Iris, then Amethyst

!usernamechecksout@lemmy.zip

I love royal

(Im only saying this because you're the moderator)

Plum all the way.

Violet!

Psychedelic and Indigo. I can't and won't pick just one of them.

Iris comes close enought

Orchid and/or Palatinate

@LadyButterfly@piefed.blahaj.zone orchid

Eggplant and midnight are both very nice

Pastel, pale, lavender

Iris for sure, that's the color I set in SC2 when I played Zerg

Wildberry, I like the softness of it and the reddish undertone. Then it's plum or midnight.

I count like four shades with slight variations.

Refused.

Bright is probably would be the closest for me, but it also depends on usage. I'm not using it as a wall colour.

As any eastern european would say:

I don't speak woman, purple is purple
