I'm working from home and my job gave me a Raspberry Pi to use. I've never used one before, and I have it running but there is no control panel or anything, I just want to add a blue light filter, that's it.

  • I dont know what Pi it is. Blue light filter is just a screen filter so there isnt so much blue light that's bad for your eyes. Is there a control panel or something? I don't know how any of this works

  • Depends on the OS you are running

    Please open a terminal session, type cat /etc/os-release, and tell us the output. Please edit that into your question rather than replying as a comment.

  • As per this blog, simply using the "warm" setting on your monitor should do: nrecursions.blogspot.com/2018/03/…

Your monitor might have a setting to do with that. My Benq monitor has a built-in "night" setting that provides you with a slightly orange light.

Most Linuxes include a program redshift. Just type

man redshift

to see if you have it and how to use it.

  • Before you recommend redshift, can you confirm (with reproduction steps) that you actually have it working on a Pi?
