What is the point of making this a fake service?

I think the consensus was to not package exec pause services any more? The first part here can happen in core-services instead, shut down is the complicated one.

I would say the purpose of this service is so that when you reboot, your screen brightness can be maintained across the reboots, rather than just resetting itself back to defaults.

I see. So what would you recommend for making this more suitable for void linux? Having screen brightness that doesn't reset across reboots was a big sticking point for me with other runit based distros.

I'm not sure. Maybe provide a small script around a tool like brightnessctl that can be added to rc.local?
