JustGetFlux

Software that stops your devices from keeping you awake at night. For Mac, Windows, Linux and iOS

[JustGetFlux @JustGetFlux]

Random thought for the day: every time you see f.lux turn your screen to nighttime colors, dawn is breaking on the other side of the earth.

@jedhl Yes you are right… we are a bit behind there. The Store is <1% of our installs and they have reworked it so it uses a different format. We will update eventually, but right now the latest version is on our website.

@Windows I use @JustGetFlux myself.

@jessicaalanas @medsiri Comments from 2021 below. We don't know if a dimmed iPhone can disrupt sleep due only to the light - likely it is below threshold for many people.

Some notes:
The first thing to show is any difference between using a phone and not using one - this study doesn't show any difference, with P>0.5. So that's the headline really. (1/n)

@GroidFarmer @iristech_co More seriously, sRGB goes to "all red" around 900-1000K. f.lux does go this low with Darkroom mode, or keyboard shortcuts to change CCT. Our sliders go to 1200K, because we think it massively improves color perception without any noticeable melanopic impact.

@GroidFarmer @iristech_co Well, zero kelvin would be totally black.

[JustGetFlux @JustGetFlux]

@GroidFarmer @iristech_co Yes, we shipped this feature several years before Iris existed, and many people use it for this reason. (Iris may not be aware of it, though.)

@gosber Some older versions have a broken updater…. can you try installing again from the website instead? https://t.co/TQQM1QpLTu

This animated story from @asteckelberg⁩ explains why experts in circadian clocks favor #permanentstandard time. While not always obvious, it is the best option for your #Health and #Wellbeing. @SRBR_Outreach @CCB_UCSD @sleepfoundation https://t.co/VSdFVGzNT6

Once a year, for a rare moment at 7:15 AM EDT on July 8th, 99% of the world's population will be in the Sun. About 6.4 billion people in the daytime, while more than 1.2 billion people experience twilight. How cool is that! Source: https://t.co/5fN1IaFR3c

@rabidrodent The Microsoft Basic Display Driver does not have support for color transforms… Intel 3000 is pretty old but maybe you can find a driver or move to Radeon entirely.

@s1guza If it’s 12.1 beta3 there seems to be a new macOS overflow. We have worked around it (and some other issues) in a new build here: https://t.co/DjKscvzNQc

If you (or a small person who lives with you) wakes up too early after the time change, try to go for a walk before sunset every day this week.🚶‍♂️🌄

Some people get this backwards, but when the clocks move to an earlier time, we wake up *later* in our circadian day.

Here's a temporary workaround for the new MiniLED Macbook Pros - hope this is fixed in macOS soon.

About the new M1 Pro/Max MBPs with f.lux: they seem to be swizzling RGB to GBR (making screens turn cyan), and we aren't sure why yet. Hopefully will be fixed soon.

[JustGetFlux @JustGetFlux]

@ogimoore This is only for the new MiniLED macs.

[JustGetFlux @JustGetFlux]

Monterey 12.0 seems OK. Please avoid updating to 12.0.1 if possible.
