I don't get this, I'm none of these. I doubt I'm special.
People are not all one? Do yo really imagine grey potatoes when someone says apple.
I'm still coming to terms of people who don't think visually, there are people who think in grayscale??

Aphantasia is neat. I have to wonder how it affects the way we see the world. I'm 1. It doesn't really take concentration, which I see on here? it's not any harder than just a simple internal monologue anyways. But that's always in motion whether I want it or not so π€·
That's including lights and reflections, but like that's constructed by me, and so I might imagine a light reflection incorrectly. again just like I might have a definition incorrect for internal monologue.
Anyways, sure. Imagining is part of it. Like placing yourself in the situation in front of you. I don't need adult videos to do so though. But like, having full HD imagination doesn't replace videos of any kind, or else I wouldn't watch YouTube either ya knoe
I think I am a 5. I feel like I am imagining an apple but then I am not sure whether I "see" the thing I am imagining or not. It's weird.
Im a 1 and i like video and images. But i can also watch movies in my head of be fantasy banging people
I guess Iβm 1. No, I donβt watch βadult videoβ.
I already have a decent amount of masturbation addiction, and I donβt want to make it worse.
1 and yes normally. But I have sometimes had extended spells of no internet or computer access in which case I've used my own mind.
I'm a 1 and of course I do. Imagination is like playing with dolls. You already know everything going on. It's not the same as watching something made by other people.
If you think this is cool, how many inner dialogues do y'all have?
I'm like a 3-ish, and I do. I equally enjoy adult books though, if that helps or complicates whatever you're trying to suss out.
yes because most of the time, it feels better to be able to turn my brain off.
But I am able to use stuff like AI Dungeon as an alternative if I need it.
3 or 4, but I can 'see' the geometry and motion of one or more objects interacting with each other or the environment. Rotation, deformation, shear, impact etc.
It is less so that I can 'see' and more that I can 'feel' and visually conceptualize that sensation in my mind. Albeit not 'vividly'.
That might lend itself to other things
When I was young, my mind was super visual. People would talk, and there would be a stream of pictures and videos in my mind. Then I got really into reading and writing and, over the years, my mine got much less visual. I still can visualize things, but it's not the way my mind really works. It's closer to an audio book, but isn't really sound, either.
