Why do East Slavs use (light) blue colour?

Maybe when you enter the house, there is yellow colour.

Blue outside, yellow inside. Ukrainian flag!

Maybe it has practical purposes? For example, light blue resembles water so it might scare away various insects and bugs (also woodworms), who avoid getting drowned. This is just my guess.

Your guess is correct.

I like light blue. Those buildings look nice

I bet because of 9 months with gray weather, they use to colours their buildings in abominable tones

I expected your conclusion to be about light blue color reminding of the clear sky when the whether is good. Well I was wrong.

but I prefer our post-German red (bricky) - funny thing - the Soviets seem to be less red than here

So our tastes are quite opposite in that regard as I'm depressed by a lot of bricks of their natural color.

Our house in countryside used to have light blue shutters. I like this color.

A very good idea.

Obvious German architecture, which makes this mistreatment in blue even more painful.

Greeks use it too, also Spanish

I prefer muted yellow

I agree- it is calming.
