Redshift isn't maintained anymore. what to use?
-
If you use Linux Mint, it has its own redshift implementation in the new release 22.1.
-
Gammastep's last commiyt is also from 2 years ago. Seems unmaintained to me.
-
I'm using Arch btw
-
I do too (endeavour os), but I prefer Mint. It just works, and it doesn't break as easily. All my laptops are mint, all my desktops are debian-testing (the most stable rolling release around), and I have one laptop where I fuck around with other distros for fun.
-
I don't think you understand how the redshift app works then? It's not meant to stop bright lights, it is meant to remove blue light to mimic the light of evenings
-
Yes of course I know that, I used it for years for that exact reason. Re-read my comment more slowly.
-
Both gnome and KDE have this functionality built-in to the system now. It’s under display settings.
-
Use it and redshift anyway, what kind of exploitable vuln could possibly be found in it?
-
I always found that to be quite hit and miss. Works for plenty but often gives a flash of white before it kicks in and makes enough pages unreadable that I'd rather not bother at all! I'll give it another go and see if it's improved though.
-
Im using xfce and i3wm.
-
Literally my first experience after installing dark reader is that it can't darken its own add-on page! Seems to be good for other pages so I'll give it a go for now.
-
Lol I thought he meant renderer
-
wl-gammarelay-rs has worked for me. This is a daemon controlled through dbus, but there are some applets listed in the readme as well as a script in the repo for adjusting based on the time of day.
-
Gnome's was very inferior last I looked. No brightness factor and it was sunset or fixed time.
