Night light and Redshift don't work
I installed Ubuntu on a disk partition just two days ago and everything work like a charm. The only problem I'm having is with the screen temperature color. In Windows I use f.lux and I set the color temperature as red as possible (3500K) all-day-long. I want to do the same in Ubuntu but I faced many issues:
f.lux doesn't change the color at all
Redshift changes the temperature for a couple of seconds, then it suddenly goes back to the normal color
GNOME Night Light has the same problem of Redshift: the change is not permanent although I set the color temperature to be 3500K from 5AM to 3AM
Is anyone having the same problem? How can I fix it?
System info:
- Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
- GNOME 3.28.2
- External monitor HP 24" 60,00 Hz
gnome 18.04 screen colors temperature

f.lux is buggy and won't work on most 18.04 installation. Other 2 should've worked.

I found that for Night Light I have to set it to manual mode and set the start time to some time before the current time and the end time sometime before the end time.
I was perplexed for a while because I assumed that, like all other widgets in Ubuntu, setting the switch to on (green) would just turn Night Light on.
