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.

Ancient computer and nvidia card here. Not sure what Gnome's nightlight is ultimately based on, but you might try Redshift or f.lux which - I assume - do pretty much the same thing.
I've used both and am currently using Redshift. f.lux stopped working for me a few years ago and I haven't bothered trying to find out if that was a fluke and whether it will work again now. Redshift uses geolocation by default, but that can be turned off.
I would bother but I have other issues with nvidia+wayland so I just stick to xorg, which seems to be the thing nvidia really supports.
