I do not miss orange-yellow streetlights. They made me sleepy and disoriented, which sucks in the winter when it gets dark early and you still have to do normal person things until 6 or 7. I reject knee-jerk nostalgia from people who feel unmoored by the rapid technoindustrial change of our era, understandable as it is. But it might actually be a good thing that people can see clearer and better in the night when they need to navigate urban areas. Saving energy is a good thing too, actually, a tangible and immediate benefit, not just a pointless canard thrown out by the evil NWO lizards.
LED's are easily tunable and we should simply show up to Public Works department meetings until we can force the nerds to split the difference between pure white and orange-yellow. It's not even technically hard.
I like streets where the filter got fucked up and the color is purple lol
It’s a white person thing, you will never understand

The time industry and technology advanced the most quickly was like, between 1930-1989 and humans didn't need melatonin-inhibiting lightbulbs to be productive. That technology was also supposed to feed back into increased productivity, thus less time working on a job. That didn't turn out.
If you feel tired at 6 or 7 without white glare blasted on your face, it might be in part because of the season, but realize that is still not normal. We're now at the phase where the commuter-space---I mean streets are designed to enable the continuing squeezing of energy from workers.
You are supposed to be sleepy at night. Not getting sleepy at night is a harmful physiological effect.
Flooding as much space as we can with the brightest lights we can also harms animals, both diurnal and nocturnal ones.

The current global insect extinction probably plays a bigger part.
Orange/yellow lights is what keeps bugs away.
On an unrelated note, I thought it was interesting to learn that northern areas that were transitioning from regular... honestly I don't know what kind of lights are at stoplights/red lights, maybe lightbulbs but there was a mass shift to LED lights which caused visibility issues due to lacking the heat to melt snow.
