I'm using conditional formatting in my google sheet and provide background color on value-based. My goal is to apply a formula that will automatically count the number of cells that have the same background color. However, the issue is that since they are not color-coded by 'fill color', but based on a conditional formula, I can't seem to find an easy way to count the cells with the same background color. So please help me with this.

to count background color you can use this addon:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/custom-count-and-sum/njiklelndjpdbdngfkdgeijcpfabfgkb
and then you can simply use this formula:
=COUNTBACKGROUNDCOLOR("A2:A20", "A3")
A2:A20 being the range and A3 being the example of color to count
