Mainly to swap the Windows and Alt keys, which you can do in System Settings without any additional software. If you use a mouse with more than right-click and scroll wheel, with side buttons for example, then you’ll need extra software.

Just tried installing it, that doesn’t happen (any more). How recent was it that the dark pattern existed? After you agree to the disclaimer the checkbox disappears and there is no changed text that appears.

If that’s the case for you, I’d recommend putting other apps in your top row. I have Plex, Podcasts, Soma FM, VLC, and Settings in my top row. None of them show me ads; I get to see what I’m in the middle of watching or listening to and jum

Thanks for clarifying! You can modify your display so it looks that way all the time by changing the white point. Most designers use 6500K but you probably are looking for something near 3500-4000K. You can do this by calibrating your monit

Are you talking about Night Shift, to change the white balance of your screen to be more yellow, or Dark Mode, which can be turned on permanently without scheduling? It sounds like you’re trying to schedule Dark Mode to stay on all the time
