I swear, they like to live in a news studio-level brightness. Its all overhead lighting and bright, cool light at night

Absolute sensory hell for me.

Straw poll: which looks better?

Theyre both too brightly lit imo but the warm is definitey nicer. I want to escape any room place lit like the right

Tap for spoiler

Now, imagine its like the cool white, but its even brighter and o’erhead💀

Skeleton’s be cool white…

    Yeah, fluorescent is good at filling up space with light. It’s the tube factor. It emits the light better overall (even compact fluorescent screw ins are a little better than incandescent because the actual light emitting part is at the surface kinda).

    It’s actually really good in a space where you need even lighting rather than good lighting. Works spaces, like in a shop or kitchen, you want less shadows and more coverage, even if it’s in that wonky blue that fluorescents have. If you’re stuck with a single overhead, fluorescent is just better than incandescent, and can have advantages over LED or halogen. Sure, you’d want to supplement with a surface based directional source, but that’s way easier than trying to light with lamps only

      I wish such light could be a bit less agressive tho, like even if it could be shaded slightly pink or rose-goldey, that would be a bit nicer even for those spaces that need to be well-lit

      Like soft pink
