I’m sure there are some exceptions, but overall I would say that both tests seem quite accurate, as they both worked quite well for me. The “politiscales” one was based off of the “8 values” one, but I’d almost say that the politiscales test is more accurate, despite its occasional typos.

I've taken a multitude of tests, end up with about the same results every time.

Never did the test before, but I would hazard a guess that I've gotten far less extreme in some fields. I like that there's a nice balance between Ecology and Productivism.

Not surprised with the extreme progressivism there. Admittedly I'm sometimes a bit too gung-ho when it comes to scientific advancement.

I like the 8values test, but I've never been a fan of the PolitiScales test; I feel that unless you get an explicitly socialist result what it gives you is almost uninterpretable; I've seen many people post the PolitiScales test and I've had no idea what ideology exactly it's trying to represent.

I like how the political compass can be used easily for mass comparison, but I do feel it has a tendency to slightly distort people's political views (I don't feel my political views are as radical as it puts me).

My political compass score is in my signature and my result on 8values is Libertarian Socialist. I personally identify with the "democratic socialist" label.

I think most political ideology tests are fine. A few do have the problem of being overly simplistic or relying on a political spectrum that's very specific to one country or region.
