> People report being sensitive to all kinds of things that end up repeatedly failing to reproduce empirically when it's put to the test (e.g. WiFi and MSG), so that there's a PWM sensitivity subreddit is not the evidence that TFA thinks it is.

I know you’re looking for large sample size data, but PWM sensitivity absolutely exists, and I wish it didn’t. The way my eyes hurt in less than a minute while looking at an OLED phone (when I can handle an LCD phone for hours just fine) is too “obvious”. This occurs even on screens I didn’t know were OLED till I got a headache, btw.

(I’m also insanely sensitive to noticing flicker and strobe lights - I say a light flickers, everyone disagrees, I pull out the 240fps mode on my phone… and I’ve never been proven wrong till now.)
