Maybe... though this somewhat conflates "fullscreen app" with "video game". There are plenty of cases where you'd want Night Light to continue working in full screen mode; basically everything that isn't an app or a video. Would you instead prefer to blacklist specific apps? If so, that's already tracked with Bug 487304.

If that would work for you, then yes, let's! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 487304 *** |
Created attachment 182497 [details] Screenshot of Night Light settings page SUMMARY When playing games, I don't like having Night Light enabled; it can make some dark scenes too dark to see anything — I always forget to manually suspend it. For example, Plasma 6.4 is now enabling do-not-disturb for fullscreen apps. This feature request is very similar, but for Night Light. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Not a bug OBSERVED RESULT Night Light doesn't suspend on fullscreen apps. EXPECTED RESULT Have a checkbox in the Night Light settings page; if it's enabled, night light will be suspended (with a reasonably fast transition) when the window in focus is in fullscreen mode. This should probably be disabled by default.
