KeepingYouAwake VS MonitorControl

KeepingYouAwake. Prevents your Mac from going to sleep.

Hi, I have been using slack on my company provided mac and I have installed https://keepingyouawake.app/ to keep my macbook awake indefinitely. When I keep the slack application open for so many hours, I can still see the green dot on slack and it has never marked me as 'away'. So, I'm wondering if others can see me as 'online' if the green bubble is showing up on my slack application for so many hours?

I use this app, KeepingYouAwake works perfect for when I am trying to seed my torrents with a locked screen

FWIW, you might want to give the excellent and open-source alternative https://keepingyouawake.app/ a try.

I like https://github.com/newmarcel/KeepingYouAwake for prevent sleeping mac

As for the M1 "server" always going to sleep, I installed: https://github.com/newmarcel/KeepingYouAwake

Do people really not know about caffeine indicator, KeepingYouAwake or caffeine for windows ?

I use "Monitor Control" on my Mac Studio to control the brightness of my Dell monitor:

Just wanted to put in a plug for the MonitorControl app. I just installed it, and it enables brightness control for the QN700B from Apple's keyboard. So great not to have to pull up any Samsung menus to adjust it.

Let me introduce you to Monitor Control:https://github.com/MonitorControl/MonitorControl

Good free alternative is MonitorControl. Pretty sure it does everything Lunar does but is open-sourced.

You can with monitor control app

I'm glad you asked! I control the volume of them thru the monitor using the back/forward buttons on my mx master 3 mouse via the MonitorControl app, it's great!

Installed https://github.com/MonitorControl/MonitorControl and worked like a charm, big thanks!

As a fellow Mac + OLED TV owner, I think you'll appreciate these too. MonitorControl to access brightness settings through your keyboard and Hazeover to darken background and prevent burn-in.
