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.
What the actual fuck?
I was going to write blue/greenish. How can that possibly be a thing??
It could be the associations from the colorful alphabets you were exposed to as a kid.

Yeh there’s often a census, it’s quite weird. Whats nis 9 for you?
9 is dark red
It’s a brick red for me.
It has a taste too. It’s not dry like bricks but it’s a dry taste. Not spicy. Not plain. Slightly fruity, an acid fruity.
To me it's more like yellow.
Totally agree
Wait, is this why the show is called Bluey?!?

What a ridiculous and unnecessary question. The letter E is clearly light green.
Seems to be, yes.

Butter yellow
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.

Yellow
It's yellow.
Red, totally red and somewhat bright.
White or black, depending on color scheme, as we can clearly observe right now. E
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.
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
A little e is forest green. But a capital E is red.
Yellow/orange.
A very pale blue
Let me take a bunch of acid and I'll come back to you on this..
I have synesthesia and it’s definitely black
White
Green
#eee is a very light shade of grey
I have the wrong synesthesia for this...
Maybe a kind of teal, sea green.
Yellow. Sometimes slightly darker and more orange.
It's green. If you have colours associated with letters or numbers, there's a good chance you have a form of synesthesia.
(0, 0, 69) in RGB, or #000045 in HEX.
This is a dark blue color.
Capital E is yellow, lowercase e is green.
Like blue/green
Blue
Without seeing your choice I was oscillating between blue and green but settled on green.
Yellow
Brown
Edit: Boy I guess nobody likes Brown E's....
