This came up on “dopamine fasting” suggestions or like a kind of asceticism

The idea is that color on screens contributes to creating overwhelming stimulation, so you can put “grayscale mode” on, on your computer, to make it only show black, white, and gray, which is less stimulating to your brain

I’ve done this for a while before and got used to it, and then quit it and didn’t notice much of a difference

Trying it now, it does feel different, and I might like to do it pediodically

Anyone tried “grayscale mode” and had thoughts on it?

Linux Grayscale: Depends on Distro I think (Gnome has a “Bedtime Mode” Extension - https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/4012/gnome-bedtime/)

Mac Grayscale: https://9to5mac.com/2019/05/27/how-to-use-grayscale-on-your-mac/
