  • Thanks for the ideas - unfortunately anything downloaded and run seperately will be picked up by the endpoint security solution and blocked. I've got a temporary exemption to use my own device at the moment but will be getting another corporate laptop shortly. Interesting to me, I have an AMD Ryzen 5 laptop runnig Windows that gives me mild eye strain by the end of the day but doesn't give me nausea / motion sickness so I am pushing for corporate to issue a laptop with AMD Ryzen CPU/Radeon GPU.

    One of my clients requires all work to be done for them on an issued device. Their issued laptop has an 8th gen Intel i7 and I get the same nausea / motion sickness on that. I've turned on dark mode, turned off HDR etc but just can't get rid of the "shimmer" even on an external monitor.

    • Thanks and apologies for the very delayed reply! Unfortunately, the information security team would not allow ditherig to be installed and I had to stop using the laptop. I have since tested various Intel powered laptops with 11th, 12th and 13th gen chips and each of them have the same effect on me.

      • My work issued me with a Thinkpad laptop that I have found unbearable to use. After using for less than a day, I developed nausea, dizzyness and migraine. The laptop has an Intel Iris Xe GPU and what looks to be a low-end panel. As its a work PC, its very locked down but I could request corporate IT to install ditherig. It looks like v2.2 lists Iris Xe as supported - I wanted to check others experience as to how effectively it works with Iris Xe on a 12th gen chip?
