beasts_of_homeworld: Deep in an ancient forest where green moss covers all, little glowing balls of coloured light float about in the mist. (Any - Forest)

wow, thankyou for commenting!

we did try flux a while back, and it didn't work for us (for a bunch of reasons including unsuitable colours for us, and not functioning great on our ancient linux laptop). that's still a really good shout though, thankyou for suggesting it just in case!

the driver settings we didn't know about! thankyou! we'll go look into that, see if it's an improvement. our current setup works pretty well for us most of the time, so long as we can use our main browser with its custom colour settings, and aren't trying to navigate one of those sites that break if you use our accessibility settings, lol. but yeah, for those times when we can't, we're totally going to take a look at that colour profiles idea.

one of the biggest reasons we use linux is that we can completely customise the colours in our desktop environments and programs - text document page backgrounds and default text colours, instant messenger backgrounds and text colours, frames & backgrounds for all kinds of windows from image viewers and art programs to popup notifications, dropdown menus and text input boxes on websites, everything. we get to specify the hex codes for all of it. so that's been pretty essential for us. x3

anyway, yeah, thanks so much for your comment. we really appreciate you taking the time to offer us potential solutions! <3
