That's fair, but I had sleep problems for years that I've finally gotten under control through a bunch of things, one of which is blue light filters on devices towards the night. If it's a placebo effect, I don't want to lose it! Lmao

I don't think those are doing nothing. I often find blue-light filters are a lot easier on my eyes. But even so, brightness might have a more powerful effect, and I can attest that my phone's brightness comes all the way down at night.

Actually, even at minimum brightness with a blue light filter on, I still get annoyed when my dark-mode apps are interrupted by a giant, white block of anything.
