Or switch to HDR if you have a capable display.

I was pleasantly surprised that HDR also means you can control brightness - it is all software I that case!

And the brightness keys on an external Apple keyboard work.

According to my (limited) testing, you can only control brightness when the transfer function used on the HDR content you see is HLG. When it is PQ, the luminance seems to be “absolute” and ignores the display’s brightness settings.
