> displays are actually pretty much negligible in terms of overall health, but don’t quote me on that.

Yeah, forget that. It's unreasonable to assume "negligible" is in any way or form acceptable when it comes to vision. It fucking isn't.

Here's something fun! You can actually subjectively measure how bad it is. All it takes is or white background, in full screen, full brightness, in a dark room. It creates a burning-like sensation in the eyes. Then stop, wait a few minutes until it fades and repeat the process with the filter on.

You'll actually notice a difference.

You’re aware that turning on a blue filter at the same brightness level will obviously decrease the overall emittance of the display? Most displays are already way too bright for ideal viewing conditions at maximum brightness, let alone in a completely dark room. Of course it will blind you at that setting and of course mostly turning off a third of the sub-pixels will reduce the issue. That’s why one should trust science over anecdotal evidence because a good scientist would control for brightness...
