 I use these

Although they’ve put the price way up since I bought them 
 Unfortunately man the only ones that really work are the orange tinted ones.  
From what I understand, it Doesn’t matter the brand or quality. 
 That's what I'm learning. The ones I have just aren't working well enough.  
 Yea I use orange/red tinted ones 

Works great.

Some nights I go:

Red filter on phone 
Red lights in room
Red tint glasses 


for full immersion https://i.nostr.build/wTPLijcwBeJSPAfm.png  
 Get yourself an orange dry-erase marker and DIY those guys 
 Kill it at the source. Limit exposure time. Better than using glasses that may mess with your body's rhythm.

 I hate apps that don't have a native dark mode.  
 agreed. 
 yeah... a lot less common than it used to be, luckily ! 
 I'd rather recommend the near-infrared blocking glasses. It's good for your #Privacy and safety.
 
 Approximately this frequency band:

 Bon Charge. Been using them for a few years now. 
 None. Download f.lux  
 I got these on Amazon but I want to get some clear ones. They also came with a test light and a piece of photoreactive paper so you can test that their blue light blocking capability is legit. I used it on my wife’s clear blue light glasses and it worked. https://image.nostr.build/43c7d853f68bab359dd1655cd9b95302ba253e80e838cefeaa9b628137926e3d.jpg  
 I use these daily, and like them well enough. Added bonus, they don't interfere with the old school curve of my baseball hat's brim
