On: Show HN: Simulating 20M Particles in JavaScript

Might want a strobe warning. At least for Firefox and Chromium in Linux on a desktop it strobes heavily in the starting state.

It depends on the display type. When run on something with low per pixel lighting it can flicker a bit due to how quickly the average light changes frame to frame. Anything with local dim zones may struggle. I looked at ways to fix this but could not come up anything other than running a blur filter which ends up looking terrible.

"When run on something with low per pixel lighting it can flicker a bit due to how quickly the average light changes frame to frame"

Not sure I understand. The flicker is not due to sometimes the screen drawn with white(like I assumed) and just because of my mobiles light settings?

Other simulations similar to this, don't have this flicker on my devive.

(still impressive work, genuine question to avoid this effect in my experiements)

And no matter the technical reasons, for some people this might be a serious health issue, so a warming might make sense in the current state.
