The main difference between here and mainstream social media, is that there are no algoritms to make you feel guilty for not being on here by telling you what you have missed.
You are free to login daily, weekly or take a break for a month or two, without having to feel guilty. Your health and esp mental health are important and come first.

If this does not happen it will add evidence to corporate profiteering.
Just adding this for context, k stars night vision mode
Ah that makes more sense, I think it would work with screens attached to a telescope being able to switch between mono and red, would be handy, but that would need some research.;
@newt Ah ok, I know there are different settings on devices, For astronomy the night mode is red, for example.
Lets hope lessons will be learned from this, however how much does the current staffing problem play in to this.

I would also guess, given blue light affects sleep, this would be less applicable to a mono screen so may not have the same adverse problems.

2 January 1940 | Polish Jewish boy Aleksander Kleinman, was born in Będzin.
He was deported from the Będzin ghetto to Auschwitz in the summer of 1942 or 1943. He was murdered in a gas chamber in Auschwitz II-Birkenau.
🔹🎧 Our „On Auschwitz” podcast explains why in March 1942 the Auschwitz concentration camp became - at the same time - an extermination center for Jews: https://anchor.fm/auschwitz-memorial/episodes/On-Auschwitz-4-Transformation-of-Auschwitz-concentration-camp-into-an-extermination-center-e13bat2

We are currently experiencing record heat across Europe, but take a look at the newspapers. I mean, seriously. Where is the coverage? Where is the focus? Where is the drive to investigate the future?
We are failing as a news industry. Just completely failing. As a media analyst, it's astonishing to look at.
Given climate goals is to stop temperatures rising 1.5 degrees above normal, the fact temperatures are a good 10 + degrees above normal should set alarm bells off.
@newt Ah ok, so it is more of a aesthetics thing, if that is the right term.

I want portable devices to have monochrome screens again. Is this too much to ask?

Indeed, that would be ideal, it seems people take the car as they see public transit is not reliable, however cars on the road, clog up the road, adding to the issue of public transport not being reliable.
One solution here is to have lanes / routes dedicated for transit, so you can just get from A -> B quickly.
