Had 0 idea about purple, happened to agree about best divide between green and yellow (noticed bridal connection as stronger than just wedding). Didn’t pick up on fact that all greens started w/ a C, didn’t figure out what purple was at all. Disagree about YouTube being social media. I get the argument that it is, think it’s weak. Agree with company head: https://www.axios.com/2023/03/29/youtube-social-media-ceo-neal-mohan

After some struggles, i got the green. I had a wrong theory (involving black, rather than Jack) and tried to Google a fourth word to see if it fit, and instead of that, what came up was a while lot of hits to “today’s connections”, one of which revealed the key to blue in the summary text. I decided to play it to see if that helped me with the rest. With only 8 words, i saw the wedding connection. I didn’t see the purple. Agree that YouTube is an outlier, but can live with that.

Got lucky on some guesses

Thanks to discussion with spouse. I saw the connections among greens, she saw among the blues. (though we weren’t sure who the fourth Jack was. I thought MA vaguely familiar. And her identifying the blue connection told me which green to eliminate

Some dumb choices. I tried a couple Jack guesses before I realized I knew that Jack Ma was the 4th. Then I didn’t think through the wedding ones.

Purple was a little tricky for me - could almost see it, then it’d fade, so couldn’t really use it.
