my program is significantly better than either of those options, including fully functional hotkeys, hybrid gamma/overlay brightness logic, hdr detection, quicktray shortcut slider, a complete scheduling system, window behavior/startup options, and an attractive dark interface all in a tiny window.
and i did it in only 3 days. overkill? good, cuz i got the software i needed without knowing how to code in only 3 days. also, I've learned a ton about programming logic and code structure. it's hard to tell an llm to do something you yourself don't understand. at least if you want to build anything complex.
