Feature request: Grayscale bedtime mode

[archisman-panigrahi]

It would be nice to have a grayscale bedtime mode in Cinnamon.

Such a feature is available on GNOME via extensions like https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/4012/gnome-bedtime/ and https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1471/tint-all/

There is the "Desaturate All" applet you can install. Sounds like what you are looking for, minus the ability to set a time.

Thank you. This does exactly what I was looking for. I created an issue for the ability to set a time linuxmint/cinnamon-spices-applets#7103.

Is there any way the visibility of this applet can be increased? Initially I could not find it on the internet.

Also, (if there is user interest), it would be nice to have this bundled with the night light settings

I would love that as an option too, if nothing else removing colors will be useful for discouraging nighttime use, along with completely eliminating blue light.
