Add any other context about the problem here.

It may be a very peculiar situation but, really, who might expected such a thing?!
I had to wipe all my data and reinstall a clean version of Android.

Maybe a warning could have been useful.

Device info:

• Red Moon version (under Red Moon settings): 8.1
• Android version (under Settings > About device): 12.1
• Device: OnePlus 8T

I'm sorry to hear that. It's quite also odd— as far as I know, root mode only changes parts of the system as it's running; it does not write anything to disk (again, that I know of), so after rebooting there should be no trace. Is it possible that you did something else with root at the same time, and maybe the timing was just a coincidence?

It all stemmed from the fact that the automatic activation of the filter had not happened by the time I had set it for (I always disable tracking, I don't know if it could be related to that).
I then decide to uninstall the application in the classic way (I don't remember if I disabled the module from Magisk first or not) but the reddish tint of the screen seems to have remained. I then activate the system's blue light filter getting a combined effect (even more red screen). I finally decide to reboot in the hope that it would get better. The end of our clumsy story is already known; tragicomic as it sounds.

I don't know if something earlier (I don't recall doing anything of crtical) may have influenced the result which, by the way, you don't expect. That's why I was saying that a warning might prepare the user to spooky unexpected outcomes.
