Does the Fish not have the option to put the brightness slider in Events like on Jolla 1?

dear sir, I wouldnt have wasted the community's time with such a stupid question if it were just that. Actually, fish has the same brightness control settings like the jolla 1 but my problem is that even the lowest brightness hurts the eyes so bad that I decide not to use my phone at the night at all.

I have the same problem, it is not so severe while working with Sailfish OS apps, as they use the global background colour, I have chosen the orange tint in the ambience, and its rather bearable. The bigest problem is white background of web browser, which realy hurts the eys at night.

At the moment there are only workarounds:

You can use the altenative browser Webpirate, which has got night mode, though the night mode works not completely smoothly, opening a web page, its not active for several seconds, during the initial stages of web page loading, so it also can flash into your eyes with white background for a short moments.

Also you can wear blue blockers: orange or dark yellow tinted glasses, it helps too for your eyes.

For now we have no real control over colour temperature - the best we got is https://openrepos.net/content/coderus/tint-overlay

I use it on Jolla 1 and used it on Jolla C too I think.
