But the normal looking LED bulbs look fine. I buy 100w equivalent rather than 60 and they are great. I cannot speak of the energy savings part of it (they probably do) but they do last and they look good.
I guess I need to educate myself on the new technology. We bought a hoard of incandescents when the bans started, primarily because we didn’t want to deal with the hazards of the mercury in the new ones. But that was then, and I understand that bulbs have improved dramatically. My stash of incandescents should see me through my learning curve, though.
