Is there an Open Source alternative to "F.Lux"? #14

Open nelsonic opened 6 years ago

nelsonic commented 6 years ago

F.Lux is not Open and it appears that they have plans for a paid version: https://forum.justgetflux.com/topic/28/open-source

We need to investigate if there is an Open Source alternative.

Mac OS has "Nightshift": https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT207513 image

What is the Linux alternative...? 🤔

lacombar commented 6 years ago

redshift on linux.

JJRcop commented 5 years ago

Redshift is available on Windows as well, however it requires a bit of manual setup. Windows 10 features a built in Night Mode, which doesn't quite ramp the colors the same. Finally, an open source program made specifically for windows is LightBulb https://github.com/Tyrrrz/LightBulb/

LineageOS (for smartphones) has an open-source feature called LiveDisplay that allows to select screen temperature for night and day.

@sguillia thanks for sharing! haven't tried LineageOS yet ... https://lineageos.org looks good! 💡

I've edited my month old comment to clarify that LightBulb and Windows 10 Night Mode are different :sweat_smile:
