Bug ID: 476035
Summary: [Proposal] Set default Screen Energy Saving to 1
minute to improve Plasma's carbon footprint
Classification: Plasma
Product: Powerdevil

SUMMARY

***
Looking at the powerdevil code, it looks like Screen Energy Saving defaults to
the default displayIntegerBase value of 10. Not only is this arbitrary, it is
quite long and leaves user screens on for a long time. If someone takes 10
minute breaks 6 times a day, that's an hour of wasted screen time and wasted
energy. While this is easily changeable in settings, I don't see any reason why
this shouldn't be set by default to the most carbon friendly option (1 minute,
which is the minimum).
