Comes from the Luanti (Minetest) troubleshooting page

im jus tryin to ply gem…

This MUST be a joke. Like - “Hmm increase the gamma. If that doesn’t help, change your monitor. If you STILL WANT better brightness, maybe like - uhmmmm modify the games glsl fragment shader to render the image to the screen?.. yeah, do that.”

There is no way this is meant seriously… but if it is, i do enjoy that…

    I feel like you’re really missing the forest for the thistles here. You are aware that Minetest is free and open source, right?

      nono, i know that, amazing isn’t it! a non-profit-driven game, with SO many FOSS mods, subgames and resources! super cool.

      i just wanted to share this part of the troubleshootimg page. i’m also super surprised that the game let’s you directly edit the shaders. i know glsl well, so this seems like a super fun playground…

      i didn’t have to edit any fancy files in my 1 year of using fedora (some GNU/Linux distro)

        Minecraft vanilla actually lets you edit the vertex and fragment shaders now I think

        I looked it up and apparently it was introduced in 1.17, but they allowed you to add a custom post processing shader from back in 1.7
