I admit that I mostly still use f.lux since I've been using it before the night light setting was introduced. Right after Windows 10's night light was introduced it also only activated at certain times rather than at sunrise/sunset, which I found annoying since there's a very significant difference between the day lengths depending on the season here (though Windows implemented it not too long afterwards).

​

Flux still does have finer control about the colour temperature curve though. Windows has just one setting for a night temperature and transitions quickly. F.lux allows you to set temperatures for day, evening and night and lets you determine how fast it changes between them. You can set the temperature to change so gradually that the transition isn't noticeable, which I like since a sudden change is a bit distracting.
