I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the horribly distracting flicker that they make.

[–] bitchkat@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I've never noticed a flicker.

It depends on the make and what PWM frequencies they use. Essentially everything LED flickers.

Did CRTs bother you? Most people weren't perceptive enough to notice CRT flickering either.

I always had to adjust the refresh rate.

CRTs were horrible, the flicker was unbearable at times.

And, I'm also really bothered by LED brake lights / tail lights.

I had an interlaced monitor once. That was horrible.
