Unfortunately, Pres DJT did not "unban" the incandescent:

Executive orders cannot override statutory requirements. They can direct federal agencies to review or adjust how regulations are implemented but cannot change the legal framework underpinning those regulations.​​​​​​​

Traditional incandescent bulbs are still non-compliant. Manufacturing or importing incandescent bulbs that do not meet the efficiency standard remains prohibited under federal law.*

But we can still fight back by supporting the Soft Lights Foundation:

On a drive of 1hr 30 minutes I kept my husband enlightened by reading this excellent article! He was dodging cars while I was wondering how I can dodge blue LED lights! And how to protect our mitochondria! Thanks for TMI on this important subject for which none of us voted for.🌞🌻

I wonder if Incandescent bulbs will ever be back on the shelves of stores. They are crazy expensive when I have found them on line.

LED bulbs are available with different wavelengths (temperature). Some are even adjustable. I chose long wavelengths (less blue) to avoid sleep disturbance. Good to know there are more benefits.

We had some we found in an old garage and tried to use them. They get very hot.
