swaync can also control backlight

but seeing you have nvidia,

you may need to configure it

ofc it's work, but i don't see any changes on the monitor

@JaKooLit it works now.

Turns out this is a problem between Nvidia and Wayland which makes brightnessctl not work. Installing acpilight with

"sudo pacman -S acpilight"

and adding "acpi_backlight=native" on "/etc/default/grub" like this: image

then run "sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg"

fixed the problem. Thanks for your help @JaKooLit
