Hi Redshift isn’t maintained anymore and lately redshift-gtk doesnt start anymore (something about a python circular dependancy).
What should we use?

What setup do you have that actually sets a dark background everywhere? In my experience there are always plenty of programs and web pages that stay white.
For web sites, there’s the dark reader extension.
So I basically use only terminal apps (black!), a couple of messengers (dark mode) and Firefox. And yes, the problem is the latter. For a couple of years I used the Dark Reader extension. It works, pages look great - BUT! nothing would solve the occasional white flash problem. Last time I checked, it’s basically unsolvable by addons. Then I discovered the simple solution:
Preferences > Manage colorsand override the default colors! It works and it’s native! Pages sometimes look a bit ugly but always readable and zero white flash. This is a pro tip that hardly anyone talks about, you saw it here.As another user said, Dark reader extension for your browser.
For programs, if you are on Linux, you can changes the theme depending if it’s GTK based or Qt apps. It’s very customizable ! (Linux FTW).
If you’re on Windows… You’re probably fucked !!
