this is amazing. so glad to have native controls on my 32UD99W. LG should donate to everyone who has contributed to this application.

@shamilovtim Thanks for the kind words !
And really, @JoniVR & @reitermarkus have put a lot of effort into making this little piece of software I wrote over a weekend into a fine tool. So, thanks to you guys too !

I, too, want to say thank you for this handy application! Now I don't have to use the complicated OSD of the monitor anymore! 🎉 Thanks!

Came here to create such an issue! Such a helpful app. I would donate $10 in a heartbeat. Thank you very much.

+1 Thank you!

I can't find donate button. This is incredible application. It should be paid, with a 5 min trial, because once you try it, you want to buy it.
I work on three external monitors and adjusting brightness/contrast every night/morning is a chore.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone, it's nice to see an appreciation thread like this. I mostly started contributing to this project because it helped me a lot and there was a lot to improve. Big thanks to @the0neyouseek for being such a great maintainer and including us in this project.

About the donations:

@the0neyouseek and I have already discussed this privately, we were thinking of setting up OpenCollective and/or Issuehunt accounts for this repo, this way we can transparently spend the donations and reinvest some of them into this project. Any other suggestions would be welcome too.

There's also always the option to donate directly to contributors if they have set it up using the Github sponsors feature.

Please do! I've been searching for something like this. It's a shame Apple doesn't support CEC natively, but I'm so pumped y'all were able to make this work. I was skeptical at first, that maybe you were doing some trickery by simulating brightness and volume, but rest assured, it's actually changing the values on the display/hardware!! Fantastic. (Y'all can check by going into the menu on the monitor).

As soon as I saw that, I went searching for a donate button. Well done. I'll be watching this thread for when you set something up (maybe GitHub "sponsors" or whatever it's called?)

Seconded, I'd love to donate some money to the project. This is an awesome project.
