You should be able able to adjust the color temp settings through the GPU driver.

idk how such a simple piece of software becomes so much worse to the point of being useless. how did they manage it? i mean even the windows night light doesnt work half of the time.

You can do that, but you shouldn't because it still distorts colors and crushes contrast, just like an overlay or windows color correction settings. The less bad way of doing this is adjusting your monitor's rgb gain which you can automate with something like pic related, god bless the nir guy.

I like it because it also lowers the brightness in addition to color temp and allows to exclude programs.

Kek, of course there's a nirsoft app for this.
I took the long way of writing my own python tool to control monitor settings and switch profiles, because fuck Gigabyte software.
Writing too much into monitor's nvram might be bad, it could wear down.

What's the problem with flux? Worked flawlessly for years, and is working still. What happened?

Since a few days, at the end of the day, this fucker turn its filter on and off every 30 minutes. I deactivated the "go to sleep" notification and even rebooted, but it's still doing that. There is a post on their forum about this issue without any response.
Any open source alternative?

I think its something to do with any windows machine going into sleep mode and awakening. its fucked. it messes up anything scheduled it seems. flux didnt work consistently and also windows very own Night Light had the same issues. probably more a windows problem than a flux problem.

it rubbed me the wrong way when flux, an app I paid for, added all these new "features" yet the core functionality was broken. i blame indians though, still

The guy who created f.lux was being autistic about not letting users set their own hours. He believed the color temperature settings MUST be in line with local sunrise and sunset. Even after people started changing their location in the program so they could get the hours they wanted, he refused to let users set their own hours. Then OSes started adding the functionality into the OS itself, with users able to set their own hours. Once usage of f.lux tanked, the maintainer suddenly decided to let users set their own hours but by then it was too late. Most everyone had already moved on to the OS settings.

Nah, if I spend an evening using screens without a blue light filter I can't sleep well.

>it also lowers the brightness
Thats an illusion, it just makes all the colours darker/less saturated. If you change the "brightness" with a fullscreen black image, you will see that it does nothing at all to the brightness

Not my problem. If I want a retarded red filter I can just close one eye and repeat with the blue filter.

Hijacking the thread to ask
Does /g/ know of any software that allows me to individually adjust saturation for red, blue and green colors?
Nvidia drivers allow this natively in the desktop settings control panel, but not AMD. On Adrenalin you can only adjust saturation globally, not for separate RGB channels.
I tried the NirSoft ControlMyMonitor app suggested by >>106847587 but it's not working for me

If your monitor does not support DDC/CI (if you use hdmi try with display port and maybe it'll work) then the proper way of doing this is making yourself an ICC profile.
Color management on windows is actually extremely mature (There's a windows tool called "Color Management" for that), you can do pretty much anything, figures really beacuse windows is a printer oriented operating system.

thats the dumbest shit ive ever heard. you shouldnt be looking at ANY light at night let alone "warm" light as if thats better.

I know about ICC profiles and colorcpl, but the Windows Color Management tool is garbage. For me it's pretty much impossible to get good results using the native Windows color calibration tool.
When I was using Nvidia, it was the same. I also could never setup colors the way I wanted using colorcpl, it has a very strong bias towards magenta hues and if you move the red slider all the way down then it entirely fucks up the color balance - try moving the blue and green sliders to compensate, and you end up with a very dark screen since they actually don't adjust only saturation. These sliders also influence white levels and brightness. Thankfully, Nvidia drivers have the Digital Vibrance slider adjustments which allow to adjust only color saturation for individual RGB channels, pretty disappointing that AMD doesn't offer a similar feature.
I know there are some third party ICC profile creation tools that I'd like to try but almost all of them are paid.

You could probably make a simple script to do this via ddcutil, and connect that to a keybind.

It's a frontend to native windows DDC api, it also has a command line interface because it's high quality software

I make do with ArgyllCMS, it's a pretty tedious and manual process because you have to dump the icc profile to XML, suffer through editing XML properly, pack it back up, make sure it installs correctly and on the correct monitor but It's enough for my usecase
Also I'm pretty sure this color management tool is not actually using the same method as the ICC profile manager because I ran into the same problems as you before I started doing it the long way. I think it might actually just be a multiply overlay? It gave me very crude and ugly results with IPS monitors, dunno about OLED or else
