Redshift for Linux mint 22

[gillsman]

I understand that when Mint 22 is released the eye-care protecting software Redshift will no longer be compatible, can anyone confirm this please & if so is there an alternative I could use.
Thanks.

not what mint are saying

quote from the release notes
"

Redshift​

Mozilla retired its location service: https://github.com/mozilla/ichnaea/issues/2065.

This service was used by Geoclue to give Redshift the geographical coordinates of the computer and determine local sunset and sunrise times.

Redshift can still be installed and used in manual mode by entering these coordinates in its configuration files but it's no longer useful out of the box for casual users.

apt install redshift-gtk

The Linux Mint team will consider developing an alternative. In the meantime, Redshift is no longer part of the default software selection."

I guess that's what was meant, that it needs to be set manually.
Thanks
