Hello I would like to make a public service announcement regarding f.lux

before using f.lux I would stay up at the computer for hours into the wee morning, wondering why I couldn't get to sleep

after installing f.lux my screen gets progressively darker, giving my eyes a chance to relax and allowing my circadian rhythm to not be all hosed up from staring into a bright light all night. this is what f.lux is for

thank you for your time

thank you forums moderator zoolooman for convincing me to ignore pagancow and try f.lux

f.lux is also good if you're an astronomer if you put it to darkroom mode

I literally used f.lux once and it helped me get to sleep and I hit back in a good sleep cycle. every day since I have hated it and turn it off after about a minute but I guess it reminds me to sleep???

you can set it up so it fades between the day and night mode so the transition isn't as noticeable
