Hi!

If you’re using redshift on Linux, I made a small tool that might be useful. It automatically sets the screen temperature based on the current time, you just draw a curve for how you want it to behave during the day. Then you can just add it to crontab to run every minute or hour.

Can you adjust separate curves for red, green and blue?

[-] jak0b@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 day ago

Nope, currently just temperature. But it can definitely be added, since redshift supports it.

That would be a powerful feature and a very user-friendly way of creating what are essentially custom monitor profiles. It has my vote!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
