could we create a solarized V2 color schema with warmer or less blue light? #417
Comments
Do you know that blue light and blue colors are two different things, right? U can even have a pitch black screen, but without tools like redshift or gammastep (on gnome, KDE, bimbows and mac there is even built-in tool for that) your eyes will still be getting beaten up. |
@holykremowka2137, this is pure fantasy with no basis in physics or biology:
I don't know how you think that the intensity of a wavelength doesn't matter. If the screen is pitch black, your eyes will not be affected at all. Also, it isn't relevant if the light comes directly form a source (light) or is reflected (color) as in the end, only the wavelengths and intensities reaching the eye are relevant and not how they were produced. @zhishi, if I read stuff like that, one could think every person walking around in daylight will never sleep again and be blind in a month. Please tell me how the less intense light of a screen can be a problem for our eyes but the more intense natural light is fine? Sure, you could follow the same method and select for overall warmer colors:

What? @slalomsk8er At times when i wasnt using any color correction software (reinstalling arch, doing stuff in tty or doing stuff in root account) u know what was happening? My eyes hurt like shit, but EVERY SINGLE TIME when i was greeted by beautiful red light my eyes were immediately feeling better, even when i was still using pitch black terminal emulator. How do you want to explain that?
BECAUSE ITS NATURAL. Its literally several minutes of research with uncle google. |
@holykremowka2137 and the sky is blue with 7 kcd/m2 compared to 80 cd/m2 | Monitor white in the sRGB reference viewing environment - I guess the natural blue daylight sky will just burn out your S cone cells. TLDR. it isn't the wavelength that is not natural, we even have specialized cells to handle it, but the blinking of the screen is what makes it artificial and can cause all sorts of problems. |
I have used the solarized color schema in my emacs for several years without any complaint, and I mostly use the dark mode. That being said, I feel the dark mode is a little bit blueish. while nowadays we know that blue light is not very good for eyes and sleep especially at night, and there are different ways to reduce blue light from monitor hardware to OS settings, but that will also change the overall solarized schema to a strange feeling.
I wonder if we could create a new version of solarized color schema with a warmer dark color, but still follow the same color contrast relationships and other attributes of original solarized schema? I know that may take lots of thoughts, test or calculation which I definitely can't do it, that's why I ask here. below is an example of warmer dark color:
