A matte screen protector'll fix you right up!

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Aren't they super expensive, though? Glare and reflections are the bane of my existe, but I'm also poor 😕

You can apply a matte finish yourself with a piece of fine sandpaper.

No thanks 😂

You can get matte plastic ones for less than £10 for two

For real? And they won't fuck with picture quality? Are they available for other devices such as tablets for a similar price?

Either way, link please? 🙂

It will change the screen quality slightly, though I like to think of it as free anti-aliasing

Though here you go friend, I used their steamdeck protector, though I've linked the switch one

In my experience they do affect the picture quality a tiny bit, but the sacrifice is balanced by not having a glare on the screen any more. What country are you in? If you have access to Amazon just try searching “Nintendo Switch matte screen protector”.

a black mirror:

the gloss of a dark screen reflecting the face of the user.

He who fights with monsters should be careful lest he thereby become a monster. And if thou gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will also gaze into thee

My friend in the bureau told me this, years later I realized how right he was. Thankfully, I escaped early, I still have trouble sleeping, can’t dream anymore and I haven’t cried in decades. But, if it wasn’t for therapy, I would still be defaulting to aggressive behaviors when in fight of flight mode. Sometimes getting punched, ends better than punching back.

Avoiding a fight is often the best defense.

Oh I agree wholeheartedly, but these days as much as you avoid it, sometimes it still finds you.
