Ubuntu 21.04 has no GUI for the screen brightness. Add this repo:
# sudo add-apt-repository ppa:apandada1/brightness-controller
# sudo apt install brightness-controller
Now you can run the program, or add it to favorites.
Linux, Gadgets and Multimedia. In ye olde days a Cyprianus was the Wizard's common spellbook. As a rule a Cyprianus manuscript started with these words: "Even though Moses knew all the secrets of our Art he did not abuse his knowledge. Do Thou likewise."

Ubuntu 21.04 Brightness GUI
Ubuntu 21.04 set brightness
There is no brightness button in Ubuntu 20.04. Why? But you can set the brightness via terminal commands.
Step one: find the name of your monitor.
In my case:
# xrandr | grep " connected" | cut -f1 -d " "
# HDMI-2
Then set the brightness in the terminal:
# xrandr --output HDMI-2 --brightness 1
Night settings could be a brightness of e.g. .75
No GUI for the screen settings, such as color and brightness etc. is yet another serious UX-flaw in the problematic Ubuntu 20.04. This update is not the best we saw from Ubuntu. We need UX'ers in Ubuntu.
