For those of you without a built-in night mode or a night mode which requires several clicks to get to you can set it up as a keyboard shortcut. Obviously, setting it up as a terminal alias works too but the first thing I do when my desktop loads is CTRL + R and I get my night mode color temp the way I like it. Just wanted to share a tip.

    I’m genuinely curious why you’d want to do that. Mine is timed to coincide with the circadian rhythms of the GPS coordinates and those are provided as hard-coded values in my config. I suppose the only optimization I could imagine is a script where it would get my IP then correspond that with GPS coordinates so I could have circadian screen coloring wherever I go with my laptop.

    My point is, it’s a setting that I don’t turn off because that would defeat the purpose of the app.

    Regarding the message in the title, much like the Reddit downvote mob, after a while, the ones here on the federated platforms seem to get tired of downvoting people that don’t subside to their pressure. And tying back to the tip, while I struggle to think of a specific use case for that, I’ve seen other highly specific ideas before that, for their use cases, were quite good, so I imagine yours can be useful too, specially with the text body’s tone, and thus I don’t think it’s worth stressing over people trying to cause a silence spiral on yet another social media.

    I think it would be better to have one shortcut to switch between night and daymode. Should be possible somehow.
