No significant difficulties here. Both yellow and green were very clear collections of synonyms, which are generally the simplest group to solve. I would argue that green was easier than yellow, but there's no substantial difference.

I tackled the purple group before the green, although I made one error initially. I had COPY EDITOR, COPY CAT, and COPY PASTE, but the phrase COPY THAT didn't occur to me – though it should have in hindsight. Instead, I chose COPY BUTTON, thinking it might be a software-related term but irrelevant.

BUTTON was grouped with SHIRT, HAT, and STICKER as CAMPAIGN SWAG, a theme widely recognizable in many regions.
