Well, in my tests logind always changed the value of this property way later then the notifier was triggered (like 1 second), so I assumed that this is always the case. But you're right, that I don't know for sure. > Why do we have this check anyway? It's only a small difference in look and it's working anyway, that's why I probably found the possible race condition not that important. Take a look at line 117. If it's true, we change the color temperature value without fade, otherwise we do. The else case is for example triggered on timezone change while running, so it fades nicely in. But this is a corner case, and we might just ignore it.
