what are the differences between blue light coating on glasses and using something like f.lux?
- Larrikin 6y agoHaving to have the glasses on hand, having to decide when to wear them, and being happy not having the ability to adjust the intensity.
- bllguo 6y agoI can see how lack of choice could be beneficial, though I've used f.lux for years on default settings
- valbaca 6y agoI have blue-blocking tint on my glasses, it doesn't do much but blocks some of the harshest blue lights. f.lux is on a whole other level and completely tints your screen I love f.lux (and it's cousins) for two reasons: 1. when it's real late at night (usually b/c I'm getting paged at 4am), it's a godsend. I'm talking when it's so dark that even the lowest brightness setting is too bright, f.lux is a lifesaver 2. I have my flux setup to go orange at 6pm. This gives a not-so-subtle clue to my brain that work-time is over. It serves as an excellent way to prevent overworking. Even if I do go over 6pm, I'm aware that I'm working "overtime" and just get what I need done and then go away.
- bllguo 6y agodarn this is what i suspected. I've long been a user of f.lux and share the same positive sentiments. I ask because I just got blue light coating on my glasses and they haven't arrived yet. Feel like I might have been scammed a bit, haha
