White lighting is toxic and abusive and it should be outlawed.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I work nights under white light and it's disgusting, some nights I spend the whole 8-12hrs with an awful headache. I begged to have them changed and their answer was to allow me to turn all but one light off which does shit all when it's still bouncing off all the windows.

You have my deepest sympathies.

Glasses with some kind of light filter on them?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

My reading glasses have a filter in them but it does shit all, sometimes in the early morning hours I just pop my sunnies on.

Hard agree. I have never used the downlights in my apartment because they're white. I have yellow lamps, yellow fairy lights, and multicoloured globes, but I fkn loathe white lighting.

I thought this was some abusive behaviour related to white knighting I’d not heard of 😂

I also have accent lighting behind my desk, and in my bedroom behind the bed. Love accent lighting.
