@alatiera @jimmac I often wonder why GNOME needs a dedicated light/dark mode toggle in the quick settings. I don't think anyone is switching between the two that often. I like to think its sole purpose is to appreciate how beautiful the transition between the two is in GNOME (dynamic wallpapers, fading apps).

@thomy2000 @alatiera @jimmac particularly, I change from light to dark mode during the day and lighting of the place. It's not about aesthetics, but about my visual health.

@CleoMenezesJr @alatiera @jimmac I thought most people used an extension/systemd timer for that. Maybe my assumption was wrong (I never use the toggle).

@thomy2000 @alatiera @jimmac anecdata, sample size of one, but… I use the toggle all the time! :) I don't schedule it because it's way more context-dependent for me (based on whether I'm in a dark room, what I'm doing, if I have a headache, etc.). But I toggle it multiple times a day.

@cassidy @alatiera @jimmac Do you also manually toggle the blue light filter then, or is that on a schedule?

@thomy2000 @alatiera @jimmac I don't usually use it on my computer, honestly. When I have used it it's usually scheduled, but I would like to be able to temporarily toggle it off if I'm doing color-sensitive work.
