       #blog #blogging I really dislike the direction modern displays have taken. Give us better color, please.https://aflyonthewall.page/index.php/2022/07/07/dear-computer-display-manufacturers-anything-other-than-led-please/

       @chance "White" LEDs which use a blue LED and a yellowish phosphor are a scourge wherever they're used.I tend to wonder why display manufacturers wouldn't try separate R G and B backlights, flashed at some suitably high frequency while the light-valve matrix is switched. In other words, broadly the same technique as single-chip DLP projectors.Now, full disclosure, I get irritated by the color fringing on single-chip DLP, but if you could flash at 600 Hz it would be fine.

       @publius A few display manufacturers tinkered with three color LED for awhile, HP one of them in their early DreamColor display designs.I never got to see one in person, but I bet they were nice.I tried a new display with LG's version of Quantum Dots recently, and it was better. If better is a 2 on a 1-10 scale and a typical midpriced white LED display is a 1.It's really a shame displays have fallen so far from their high water mark.
