I never really understood this program. I tried it for a while and it just made me feel like my monitor was about the crap out
>>
>>51974037
it has definitely helped me fall asleep at night. I use it on both my phone and my laptop.
>>
I like it.

Although I use twilight on my android since there isnt an app for android only iphone

>>51974037
Less strain on eyes at night.

Helps me out desu. I spend way too much time with the only incoming light being the monitor.

Need to get myself a candle

i've dropped the programs more than i've dropped my animus, but once you get used to it, it really helps.

I sit at my computer for 10+ hours only getting up to go to the bathroom, for food, etc. in a completely unlit room. My eyes have never started hurting from it. Never understood this.

darkroom mode is god-tier

also i just fucking hate that my monitor's minimum brightness setting is just too fucking high.
it seems like a recent trend.
Fuck off LG, i bought a computer monitor not a fucking lightbox.

>>
>>51974023
Once you're used to it it really is a drastic, eye burning, difference.
>>
>>51974152
It's supposed to help your body fall asleep, since bright blue light keeps you awake.
>>
>>51974067
Ty senpai, needed an app like that for android.
>>
>>51976243
I hate sleeping, waste of time.
I'd rather the blue light than not.
>>
>>51976243
I run my monitor in the sRGB setting anyway and that is close to 6500k, so it's not blue to begin with.
>>
>>51976292
Isn't it already built into android? Or is that a CM feature?

I literally have both my monitors on max brightness in a completely dark room, no lights.

Are you all just fucking pussies or something? Or is my screens max brightnesses just somehow considerably less than everyone else's?
>>
>>51976314
6500k is incredibly blue.

"Most LCD displays are calibrated to display at 6500K, which has even more blue than noon sunlight (5500K)."

Dude.
CF.lumin for Android. Seriously it's like, the standard.
>>
>>51976354
Have you tried f.lux?

Give it a shot. A few days, maybe a week, you don't have to use drastic settings, I use 4200k, 6500k for day with the slow transition speed.
>>
I work with graphics, so I can't afford to lose the color accuracy.
My eyes burn every day.
>>
>>51976384
>>51976355

Not compared to 9300k which is what most people are running their monitors at.
>>
>>51976424
You can disable it easily when you aren't working.

Surely you aren't working all the time.

Cuz you're body is still young enough that your brain doesn't get the signals that it's getting fucked
>>
>>51976435
I get so used to the red light that I forget to turn it off when I start working.
Two hours in, I remember to turn it off and everything is fucking blue and I have to re-do it again.
>>
>>51976453
How about using an AHK script or something to disable it when you open your software?

>>51976465
Ah, that's a good idea.
I'm going to try this.
>>
>>51974152
F.lux isn't about your eyes, it's about your sleep schedule
>>
>>51976467
I used a CRT monitor set to 5500k for a long time years ago. I still stayed up til 5 am every night.

I've just installed f.lux and it reminds me a lot of that monitor, so at least there's some comfy nostalgia.
>>
>>51974023
I prefer to use my monitors built in Blue-light control.

It doesn't crash my PC when I play old games, AND it doesn't make it look like someone pissed between between my panel and backlight.
>>
>>51976544
I think what they're getting at is if you get off the computer at the same time every night, you'd fall asleep faster with f.lux than without it.
>>
>>51974023
Definitely a good program for nighttime comp use.

It takes a few seconds to start up every time after my computer finishes logging in and I can feel all that blue light straining my eyes at night.
>>
>>51974037
Let's put it that way.
If at night I'm on my win pc with flux, at around 23 I start to get sleepy and I go to sleep at a decent hour.
If I use my linux pc where I couldn't make redshift work cause I'm retarded I go on shitposting untill 2AM without even realizing how late it is.

I thought flux was placebo effect before starting to use the other linux pc, but it actually works.
>>
senpai desu
>>
>>51976292
I used Night Filter when I was on android.
I should search something like that for my WP
>>
>Flux
>monitor brightness at 0

Still too shiny. I hate fucking LCDs. I think I'm going to start reducing contrast in my GPU driver. But there's still that white led underneath, there's something particularly grating about white leds.
>>
>>51977125
redshift -l latitude:longitude
Replace latitude and longitude with values for place where you live (eg. from google maps) and put it in your autostart.
>>
>>51977221
I did, I at least know how to man.
But it refuses to do anything.
Even trying the demo function that should cycle through the various temperatures did absolutely nothing.
Running Debian/i3wm.
Maybe I'll give it another try, and if it still doesn't work I'll ask in flt or sqt
>>
>>51976376
who is this vamp tramp
>>
>>51977240

That's maybe because of randr not working properly. Try to choose other method with -m flag. Available methods for you are listed with redshift -m list.
>>
>>51977278
I'll give it a try when I'm back home, thanks.
