Autumn and winter darkness and weather indoors

[Aldriona]

I have noticed that the moment summer turns into autumn, nights are suddenly incredibly dark. Outside, I can deal with. But I can barely see my own feet inside of my normally well lit home. Am I doing something wrong? As far as I'm aware, my home is counting as a room and well insulated against cold and weather. I've also noticed the fog effect that makes my fields so pretty at dawn also making it so that I can no longer see all the way from my kitchen to my storage room.
Is there any way for me to make it so that I can see what I'm doing indoors in winter too? Even in a relatively small room such as my kitchen I can see the dark creeping into the corners despite standing two blocks from a lantern. It's as if light sources stop working at night, it's really strange.

I would love to hear an answer because this has been an annoyance ever since 1.20 came out. The underground fog is lovely as well.

Indeed. I love waking up to see a foggy autumn dawn outside my window, it's gorgeous. Just not inside my bedroom!
