[Lenovo Legion Slim 7] created a GUI for a rudimentary brightness controller since full brightness support isn't available. Only uses xrandr so not quite optimal but I'd been changing brightness through the terminal and figured this would be convenient for myself and others maybe
I think I used this one, seemed to work for me

Cron cannot change brightness
The problem was with udev rules. It was not there for some reason
-
Brightness shortcut in Artix
brightnessctl should be used without root permisions. Check how you can do it th the README: https://github.com/Hummer12007/brightnessctl. Depending on how you installed the package the udev rules could be already installed but you also need your user in the video group.

Something like gammy for F36 with Wayland?
Been using this https://github.com/Fushko/gammy/releases on F35. Now that Fedora defaults to Wayland on Nvidia cards i can't use it anymore (I could if i went back to X11 i suppose). I have tried https://github.com/maximbaz/wluma but it doesn't seem to work on fedora, even when compiling it myself. Anyone got a similar software that does work? I hate getting flashbanged when opening a website with a white background at 23:00.

Need help with auto brightness
you can use a program that has auto-brightness option to achieve this, i use gammy for example, just uncheck the auto color temperature option because that is for night mode (reduces blue light in night).
