When I'm working it's laptop on the left connected to a 34" UW as my main display and a 32" on the right, both curved. For personal stuff it's the same minus the laptop. I'm thinking about switching back to my old setup which was 32" main with a 24" in portrait on each side. Not that useful for personal use, but for work I could use even more...

In the livingroom it's a 65" TV...

1 x 27", 1440p, OLED, 240 Hz gaming monitor. It's all I need because I have a proper window manager (i3wm).

I use a pair of 27” curved monitors and a 65” OLED

the monitors are on independent monitor arms (I usually have them together like a big ultra wide), and the OLED is connected on a TV stand next to the desk. I use the OLED from the couch, but I can see it from the desk, too.

Gotta have that third monitor to see your desktop background at all times. ✨👌

I'm just kidding

nice lights!

Went back to a single monitor: 32" 1440p at home, 24" 1080p at work. The 32" is big enough to have two windows side-by-side, so I rarely miss having two screens.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah I find moving my neck to the side difficult. But I find two windows not enough. Might need a bigger single monitor.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Two 27" 1440p, one being straight in front and one angled to the side

Do you stand up for the second one? Or maybe you have an extendable neck?

Do you wish your setup was different? Because this seems like an ergonomic nightmare to me.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 weeks ago (7 children)

Yes but unfortunately I live in Hong Kong and horizontal floor space is too precious

I just have 1 25" one.. I do want a second one, but you know :3.. life

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You can probably find a shitty monitor for cheap off Craigslist or Facebook marketplace. I bought a shitty VA monitor for $20 like ten years ago and it's still part of my setup

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Don't really see a point to getting a shit one tbh x3

40” UW, 5120x2160. It’s all the real estate I need.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

That's what I'm going for next.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

32" with 27" on the side.

Barely using the 2nd monitor.

Tried using double 27" but it didnt work for me (I just focus on one monitor).

I tried a curved ultra wide once. I loved it for work and gaming, but i am so used to having 4k that I experienced it as blurry, and 4k curved monitors are €€€.

Moral of the story: dont get used to 4k, it will spoil you.

2 24 inch AOC monitors.
