Hi Redshift isn’t maintained anymore and lately redshift-gtk doesnt start anymore (something about a python circular dependancy).

What should we use?

    Definitely disagree, dark mode doesn’t change the temperature of other things you are viewing such as images and video

      Sure, images and video are the exception. But I figure that a redshift app can only help so much when a video suddenly cuts to a picture of a white sky. That’s really another problem: choppy contrast. Only solution is to increase ambient light behind the screen.

          Especially if they’re dark (literally midnight) blue, which is what my screen currently looks like!

          I’m going with my feelings on this one. To me, an untinted white screen is like a standard LED lamp - it screams “Morning! Time to get up!” (which is why my lamp is covered with orange cellophane). A (heavily) red-tinted white screen feels like sunset. And my dark screen feels like, well, midnight. I sleep like a baby so in my case the problem’s solved.
