--- Comment #4 from Archisman Panigrahi <apanda...@gmail.com> --- Here are some reasons why this feature is important (see comment above for how to turn it on): 1. If someone needs to look at their phone at night, the grayscale mode puts significantly less strain on the eyes (having minor vision issues which are triggered by strain due to long usage of screen, I can say it does help a lot). It would be helpful to have the same on a KDE. 2. Moreover, looking at colorful imagery before going to sleep may partially contribute to insomnia (even with a blue light filter) – grayscale mode doesn’t have that much impact. 3. Also, research shows that grayscale mode helps dealing with phone addiction (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/12/technology/grayscale-phone.html). It should also apply to internet addiction on a computer. 4. The grayscale mode may have the added benefit of reducing battery use, but I am unsure about that. Many modern phones provide such a grayscale mode at night, in addition to a night light mode. MacOS and Windows already have this feature, so does the Cosmic Desktop (https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-epoch/issues/1751#issuecomment-2762378024). In GNOME and Cinnamon, this feature can be implemented with certain extensions/applets. KDE already features Night Light. It would be great if KDE offers a Grayscale bedtime mode. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
