Finally some important questions!
Colors are very dependent on cultural context so if people would put their countries along with answers it'd be nice.
I personally think it's completely separate and not really comparable even though directly translated from Icelandic the color is "violet blue". From Iceland
I consider it not a real color, just a sick joke our brains play on us. I also think it's an ugly color though, and hate that so many modern applications use it as a main color and don't allow retheming to something pleasant like blue or green.
I consider it a cool color because I can usually wear it and look good, and generally cannot look good in warm colors. But never thought of it as a red or a blue just purple.
A secret third thing
Depends on the context.
Erm what?... That's a pretty bizarre question. Like asking if a fork is more of a spoon, or a butter knife. Purple is not a red or a blue, it's a mix of red and blue, not a discrete wavelength. Violet and indigo may look similar to it but, unlike purple, are discrete wavelengths.
If one has to answer the question, it depends on the red and blue used to make the purple.
I think you're missing the point somewhat.
more like an ultra violet
To me, It depends on the shade of purple
Yes.
Purple is not a single color. Maybe a spectrum analysis could answer this for a given instance of purple, but that's not my area of knowledge.
Specifically, purple is not a wavelength, unlike red(s) at ~700nm and blue(s) at ~400nm.
Purple is what human eyes see when the blue and red cones are both stimulated by their respective colours of light.
Nope. Purple is a wavelength that partially triggers both the red and blue cones.
The visual spectrum is continuous, not just three wavelengths corresponding to the three cones.
The blue cones and the red cones are stimulated by purple light. It’s a mix of blue and red signals from the retina, but the light is a single wavelength that is actually purple.
Right, indigo is a color (~425nm), violet is a color (~400nm), purple is typically a blend of colors.

"Would you consider the middle to be closer to one side, or the other?"
obviously it is D-flat C-sharp sucks.
That's kind of like saying if 1 is 0 + 1 or 2 - 1
Depends on the shade! There are warmer purples that are closer to red, and cooler purples that are closer to blue

What, you don't create a new account with a username relevant for every comment?
Yes
Depends on what shade of purple
Or what tint, or what hue.
Depends on the purple
It depends on the purple.
It's anti-green
Anti yellow
It's a different color, I consider it purple, my favorite part of the color spectrum. Purple can be made with both blue and red, but still is a completely different color. How would you consider water? Like liquid oxygen or wet hydrogen? Or just like water?
I’m colorblind and purple is often just blue without any qualifiers.
Purple is a group of colours in between of blue and red, but unlike Indigo is leaning toward red (hot).
Is 0 nothing or the sum of all numbers?
Yes
It doesn't even exist.
purple
Purple is a kind of red to me.
There are a lot of shades that people call purple
😒
Lukewarm purple?
It depends on the definition of purple.
purple is when your eyes are about to cry with joy
Cool red
Purple is red; violet is blue.
Idfk, for me almost everything with visible blue in it is blue.
First one, then the other
