I’ve been blinded by other cyclists. When I realized how damn bright our lights are, I did as others have suggested, and made sure the angle was to the ground. Others will still see you, but its really important to make sure its angled down.
In fact, I once almost got in a fight with a guy about my light. Was coming around a corner and the guy spit on me! I turned around and started yelling at the dude and the drugged out tool told me that my lights were in his face. I don’t know if I look smaller on my bike but once I got off and went up to the guy and he took off through some bushes. In the moment I could care less if my lights were in the guys face, but looking back, they are probably pretty obnoxious.
