A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Why we actually need bluelight filters in lens, monitors and phones? Led bulbs are already emitting a hell lot brighter bluelight every day and night. Whats the point in buying these less blue marketed gadgets

I'm not sure about the glasses, but I love to crank the orange filter up on all my devices, desktop included. It just feels easier on my eyes I suppose, but I wouldn't say I do it to help my sleep. The same goes for bulbs, I tend to prefer warmer colors.

i actually use 'night light' mode all the time now at home and at the office, except when editing images or video (and am specifically messing with color)... even on the tv for most viewing (it doesn't have a mode for it but i made a preset that tries to mimic the effect).

i can't adjust my phone but it's a flipper and i don't do sms or email on it, so the screen is hardly used.
