Before opening the issue, have you...?

Searched for existing issues

Different displays have different max brightnesses

Describe the solution you'd like

Suggestion: The ability to change the value of an external display when the internal display is at a certain value. For instance, if the internal display is set to 100% make the external display 100%. But if the internal display is at 50%, set the external display to 75%, etc. A lot of external displays (including mine) can't reach the same brightness as Apple's so when they're at the same brightness value the external one can be a lot dimmer. Having the ability to equalise this would be super helpful. Especially when you've got keyboard shortcuts set to "Change for all screens"

Describe alternatives you've considered

There are none in the app

Anything else?

I also can't increase brightness of my external monitors to match MBP brightness :(
the 100% for external is very dark
