Sure, the whole world is on fire right now, but there are also little things to be upset about. ☝😉

    The comments show it’s not the color, but the intensity. Any color too bright is going to be annoying. I’ve got some monitors that have the perfect level for their power and controls, it’s just enough to be able to see in daylight, and not at all in the face in the dark. There’s no reason to have HID lights on electronic indicators (or on automobiles, but that’s a different topic).

      It’s the very colour we’re not supposed to see at night though, if we want to sleep.

      Sleep studies have found that even the standby light on a TV impacts sleep negatively.

      Blue is percieved as brighter by the human eye at the same luminosity of other colors.

      Also eyelids don’t block as much of it, so can still perceive blue lights with your eyes closed.

      Also blue LEDs tend to be more efficient and higher luminosity…
