    interesting. Windows has that night light mode thingy that I always turn off. I wonder if it could actually help with sleep...

    edit: I just turned on night light mode on my work PC and now I feel kinda sleepy thonk

      You can also turn Windows, Mac, and Android devices black-and-white (maybe true for iphones too but idk). This eliminates all color input and, in my opinion, is easier on your eyes and makes redshifted stuff look less weird. It's also less visually appealing, so you want to look at it less. I do this all the time and when I do color-sensitive stuff it's crazy to me how oversaturated digital colors are, and how much digital developers use bright colors to grab and hold your attention.

      I think for Windows it's WIN + SHIFT + C to go grayscale, and on Android it's "Bedtime mode" which you can schedule or add as a toggle to your pulldown bar thing
