Linux: Redshift is blinking I am using Arch linux with i3wm and picom as compositor. I would like to be able to use `redshift`. But when I launch `redshift`, it turns itself on and off every two seconds, resulting in annoying screen blinking. What can I do to stop this blinking and use `redshift` in peace?

Solution to my problem was to manually set my longitude and latitude in `~/.config/redshift/redshift.conf`:


[manual]
lat=MYLAST
lon=MYLON


another thing to pay attention to is making sure you are running only one instance of redshift.
