I use f.lux all day I don't know if I'm particularly sensitive or if it's all in my head but when I turn off f.lux, especially at night, to watch some movie or video I can physically feel my pupils dilate and it almost feels like my eyes go from being at rest to being strained.
- xur17 8y agoI use something similar to flux for my lightbulbs, and I've noticed the same thing when I disable it at night. My eyes are definitely strained.
- asdkhadsj 8y agoCare to link what you're using? It would be nice to modify my room to use changing color spectrum bulbs depending on the time of day.
- xur17 8y agoI'm using this [0] Home Assistant component. I also use a similar component to slowly turn my lights on in the morning instead of an alarm clock, which works really well. [0] https://www.home-assistant.io/components/switch.flux/ https://www.home-assistant.io/components/switch.flux/
- degenerate 8y agoSame - I have flux setup to be active during work hours (at work) and evening hours (at home) so it's filtering blue light on all my devices. When I accidentally close it or turn it off for a movie, I feel like a vampire in sunlight. I have such an easier time falling asleep thanks to flux.
- danaos 8y agoAs a linux user, I have found that Redshift works better than f.lux. It's the first thing that I install on a new machine of mine.
- paulcarroty 8y agoLast year use default "Night Light" in GNOME. Very easy and can be enabled in one click like Wifi or BT.
- thirdsun 8y agoBefore using f.lux fulltime I noticed that I sometimes got headaches after long days in front of displays, so I started using f.lux not only after sundown, but also during the day and it's very effective. There's no way I'm going back. Essential piece of software for me.
