I have a hotkey in i3wm:

bindsym $mod+backslash exec "xcalib -i -a"

which inverts all colors (btw, I have to `killall redshift` because of a bug). When colors are inverted, I feel almost undisturbed at any gruesome content (for me it's like seeing screenshots of Quake 2 with buggy GPU drivers), yet I can still easily recognise whether the content is disturbing. And when it's a video, I play it at ≥2x speed so that it wouldn't feel realistic for my brain.

I wonder whether those moderators use these two lifehacks.

They most likely can't change wallpaper on their windows XP...

What are you doing that requires this so frequently?

They wouldn't be allowed to.

There was a previous article a couple month ago that explained that this sort of stuff is already build into the moderation tools.

It seems like moderating audio is also part of the job and equally disturbing as the video.

Not sure how you get around that.

Chipmunk voices? Might make it feel less real
