Is there anyway I can get a macbook pro 9,2 ambient light sensor working in ubuntu 20.10
Here are two suggestions from the Arch Wiki, try Clight or macbook-lighter. Clight looks to be continuously maintained, so I'd try that one first.

Clight can do that. See the config file.

ambient light - brightness control for Linux
Clight is a lightweight C user daemon utility program that turns your webcam into a light sensor which it depends on to automatically adjust your screen’s display based on ambient light. Just like Redshift, Clight can manipulate the temperature of your screen and it derived inspiration from Calise.

Clight Uses Your Webcam To Adjust Screen Backlight Based On Ambient Brightness.
The only downside to Clight? You need to build not only Clight and Clightd from source, but also 2 dependencies (libmodule and ddcutil), as well as the Clight-GUI if you want to use it. That is, unless you use Arch Linux / Manjaro (there are AUR packages available), NixOS, Exherbo or Void Linux, for which there are packages available.

18-year-old built a better computer monitor that doesn't strain your eyes
Most modern displays support DDC/CI or whatever it is that lets your PC talk to the monitor and adjust brightness (and other settings).
Monitorian and other apps let you adjust those settings from your PC.

What kind of applications are missing from the Linux ecosystem?
I feel like this is much simpler than many things called out so far, but I haven't found a great replacement coming from Windows for Monitorian. It's a small app that sits in your tray and lets you adjust your monitors' brightness levels. That way you don't have to press physical buttons on your monitors. It's also very nice to be able to lock multiple monitors' brightness levels together so you can change them at the same time.
-
not adjustable brightness (srry if its my 2nd post on this sub in 2 day)
I don't have a solution but Monitorian might tide you over. Works on external displays too
-
Brightness got stuck to low setting.
Monitorian is a nice alternative to the native brightness slider because it also works with external displays.
-
any way to remap the brightness fn keys to use custom increment steps instead of +10% or -10% steps?
