If you are considering this device I suggest if your current phone has a grayscale mode, turn that on for a week to see if you can get used to it.

I don't think it's a fair comparison. The greatest aspect of e-ink screens is not giving strain to the eyes. Looking at a greyscale phone will just have the downsides of both worlds.

[-] IllNess@infosec.pub 3 points 2 days ago

Your point is valid. My advice isn't for an emulation for e-ink, but it's to see if someone can get over not seeing color on their phone. Color adds so much to the user experience.

Oh, I get it now, it makes sense too

I always wind up turning it off.

[-] IllNess@infosec.pub 3 points 4 days ago

Yeah. I have it set to turn on automatically when it's bedtime or when I manually set "Do Not Disturb". Makes me not to want to use my phone.
