I have synesthesia and it's always been turquoise (green/blue) to me. Interesting how many people seem to agree with me since I thought it would be pretty individual.

To me it's more like yellow.
What a ridiculous and unnecessary question. The letter E is clearly light green.
I don't even understand the question.
I mean, I know what you're asking, but I don't know how to answer it. Letters don't have colours. They don't have anything. Maybe it's my aphantasia, but I don't understand how a letter can have an innate colour or what that would even mean.
I'm also aphantasiac and similarly have no idea what this question could possibly mean.
I don't have aphantasia nor synesthesia and I still wouldn't be able to say something other than just the common, printed black ink. I'm floored that there is such a consensus towards what-is-effectively-teal here. Is the majority of Lemmy denizens synesthetic?!
Green or blue. Maybe kind of an aqua?
I was also thinking greenish blue. Though im leaning towards dark turquoise
Oh, yeah, turquoise is closer to what I was actually thinking. I'm bad with colors, aqua is too bright.

I don't have any sort of synesthesia, but tried to engage with the question. Was utterly unable to summon an opinion of my own, but reading through other answers yellow seems to "click" the most.
Feel like its Green
White or black, depending on color scheme, as we can clearly observe right now. E
A little e is forest green. But a capital E is red.
As a non-synaesthete, I dug around in my brain until the answer "white" came to me.
The reason: I am old and Control+E on a Commodore 64 (and some of its close relatives) would turn the cursor and text colour to white. It was the only Control+ that affected a colour change too.
A very pale blue
It's green. If you have colours associated with letters or numbers, there's a good chance you have a form of synesthesia.
Without seeing your choice I was oscillating between blue and green but settled on green.
