Hi, f.lux is designed to improve screen visibility and reduce eye strain. It doesn’t just make your screen look bad—it can actually help with eye fatigue caused by poor lighting or glare.
I spend a lot on colour projects and it became bothersome, but it helped when browsing on Reddit at 3am. It seems to affect brightness more than blue light, and the screen dimming feature is handy. I wish I didn’t require such precise colour matching—it would be ready now!
Testing on an RMBP with automatic brightness adjustment (no f.lux). No color correction needed. Will monitor changes over time.
It functions very effectively for me, and I don't feel the change. I keep the level low, though, so it isn't a major shift. I turn it off when working with colors at night.
I tried it, but it was frustrating when I glanced away because my walls were white... And during tasks like editing photos, watching videos, or playing games, it began to interfere with my workflow. I’d suggest it if your eyes are sensitive to computer use, though. It’s definitely worth a try if it’s available for free.
Flux serves as an alternative to genuine computer glasses, offering a budget-friendly option. Over time, you may start to ignore the tint, similar to sunglasses; however, adjusting the color to a warmer tone during evening hours could be beneficial. It can also display flickering when running full-screen applications, likely triggered by entering or exiting the program (ALT+TAB, Software Close).
