Specifically, stop buying really shitty LEDs and get Cree 2700ks.
Out of every LED I tested when I finally abandoned incandescent (manufacturers started shipping intentionally short-lived bulbs that would die in less than a year, when they used to last many many years before), Cree was the only brand that didn't feel like I was stabbing myself in the eyes, and also didn't have any weird hues or casts or anything (especially not the goddamned green-cast problem that so many LEDs suffered from).
GE and Phillips are distant seconds, and I don't even know why Sylvania even exists.
The only way to beat a Cree bulb is to start looking into specialty LEDs meant for photography usage (>95 CRI, >95 in R9 and R13, etc).

I considered their 1900K VTC (normally >98 CRI, but at that extreme iirc "only" >95 CRI) series LED's for true candlelight effect lighting, but they don't stock them (anymore). If someone does a kickstarter for a batch of them, I'd back it though.
