Hi all,


Last time I did a presentation of redshift (for desktop) and red moon
(for android),
just figured I'd send an email in case you'd like to follow up on it.

So quick recap, if you don't have good circadian rhythm, it can lead
to myopia, digestive problems, mental health issues and cancer.
Using redshift can help with your mood, health, and be easier on your
eyes.

So it's important to have "warm-white" or red-shifted light at night
(after 7:30pm and before 7:3am day-light savings time,  or 6:30pm and
7:30am daylight savings time). And during day should be exposed to
bright, blue-shifted light.

To install redshift it is apt install redshift
I've added the redshift configuration file,
can put it in ~/config/

and can run redshift as
redshift -c ~/.config/redshift

can add it to your startup scripts for your desktop environment of
choice. BTW we noticed some problems with the default Ubuntu desktop
environment, there may be some workaround, don't know if anyone has
found it.

can get Red Moon for free from F-droid
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.jmstudios.redmoon/

remember to set it to activate by timer,
and using reading mode if using phone for reading.

Thanks

; Global settings for redshift
[redshift]
; Set the day and night screen temperatures
temp-day=6000
temp-night=1800

; Enable/Disable a smooth transition between day and night
; 0 will cause a direct change from day to night screen temperature.
; 1 will gradually increase or decrease the screen temperature.
transition=1

; Set the screen brightness. Default is 1.0.
;brightness=0.9
; It is also possible to use different settings for day and night
; since version 1.8.
brightness-day=1.0
brightness-night=0.6
; Set the screen gamma (for all colors, or each color channel
; individually)
;gamma=0.8
;gamma=0.8:0.7:0.8
; This can also be set individually for day and night since
; version 1.10.
gamma-day=2.0
gamma-night=0.8

; Set the location-provider: 'geoclue', 'geoclue2', 'manual'
; type 'redshift -l list' to see possible values.
; The location provider settings are in a different section.
location-provider=manual

; Set the adjustment-method: 'randr', 'vidmode'
; type 'redshift -m list' to see all possible values.
; 'randr' is the preferred method, 'vidmode' is an older API.
; but works in some cases when 'randr' does not.
; The adjustment method settings are in a different section.
adjustment-method=randr

; Configuration of the location-provider:
; type 'redshift -l PROVIDER:help' to see the settings.
; ex: 'redshift -l manual:help'
; Keep in mind that longitudes west of Greenwich (e.g. the Americas)
; are negative numbers.
[manual]
;lat=44.5
lat=0.0
lon=-80.94

; Configuration of the adjustment-method
; type 'redshift -m METHOD:help' to see the settings.
; ex: 'redshift -m randr:help'
; In this example, randr is configured to adjust screen 1.
; Note that the numbering starts from 0, so this is actually the
; second screen. If this option is not specified, Redshift will try
; to adjust _all_ screens.
[randr]
