:( You just made me realize I'm only a 3 and I'm missing out on color mode. This hurts.

That's a legitimate nightmare for me. No offense but that feels incredibly dark and bleak, I'm sorry you don't get to see pictures in your head buddy. ๐Ÿ™

It's one of those things where I didn't know until I was in my 30s and figured imagining things meant thinking about them and not actually seeing them.

If you don't know what it's like you can't miss something, ya know? But there are experiments that are trying to give visualisations to aphantasia folk. I'm not sure I'd try it because then I would be missing something.

But, big pro: I can see absolute horrific stuff and I'll never be able to reimagine it. Describe a vile, nasty car wreck? Can't see it but I know it's bad. It has weird benefits
