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

What should we use?

    Use dark mode at night and you won’t need Redshift any more. It’s only relevant for white screens.

    PS: This IS in fact the optimal solution - if not for you then for others. I used Redshift for years, suffering its periodic breakages, babysitting the timezone issue, and it was worth it, because a retina-searing reddish-white screen is better than a retina-searing whitish-white screen. But a dark screen is SO much better for my eyes than either of those. I can’t believe I waited so many years to do that and I’m never going back.

      Welcome to the dark side ! Once you have seen it, you can’t unseen it ! White will always be to bright and your eyes will cry blood on every screen/webpage that doesn’t have a dark mode !
