@surovale @deebovv Nice. Abendrot makes this much less convoluted (no shortcuts automations needed) and packages it in a beautiful menu bar experience.

We also have true color keyboard shortcuts (Apple doesn’t have this) and precise Kelvin screen warmth measurements.

@michaelflux @deebovv Speaking of Flux. Mike, you should check us out.

@surovale @deebovv But in our case, we actually change the game. Night Shift doesn’t eliminate nearly enough red light for night owls.

At night you need to reduce your blue light exposure.

Night Shift is a light yellowing. It barely cuts the short-wavelength melanopic light that tricks your body clock into thinking it's still daytime.

Someone just opened a GitHub issue for the Mac app I released a few days ago.

Open source is pretty cool.

Today I’m releasing Abendrot—the free, open-source Mac app for your circadian rhythm.

An evening screen is not just bright or uncomfortable; it is a signal to your body clock.

The deeper I went into the research, the harder it became to ignore the role light plays in the body’s daily timing, especially the blue and cyan short-wavelength light emitted by screens at night.

@aasthajs Warming pulls the blue down, but a warm screen at full brightness is still a big dose — so dim as well as warm.

That's why we built Abendrot to do the warming automatically at local sunset, on every display. Free and open source: https://t.co/pj7irAwpTN
