I have 2 monitors + laptop and my setup isn't even represented here (29" 16:9 and 34" 21:9)

[-] poinck@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

I am close to #1, but I have a 16:10 not 16:9 monitor. My laptop lid is always closed. I am a 100% one monitor person.

I am considering an ultrawide at home, but I fear that I will get problems at work if I cannot have the same there. I am not sure, if the linear window manager I am using makes sense with an ultrawide. And third issue: My existing monitor is still good and and awesome features which seem to be rare on other except gaming monitors: auto brightness and presense sensor. At work I can live without these two things, because the desk space has alsways the same brightness.

I'm in a GIS-adjacent field and I'm delighted to see both my home (#9) and my office (#13) setups represented!

9 is my setup but I don't gis on my computer, it's just my home office setup

#6 with a center at 1920x1080 with the two outside monitors at 2560x1080

13 at work 6 at home.

Although in both cases all screens are different sizes and i have a kvm set up at home which allows me to switch the two larger (but still differently sized) screens to show my raspberry pi desktop or my wifes laptop for when she works from home where she has a 13 setup.

Edit: Actually i completely forgot, i have a small kvm at work too with a pi500 connected dual booting raspian and android. I use raspian to play classic dungeon keeper (with keeperfx mod) on my breaks, and android just to mess around and see what its capable of.

Pronounced jizz in case there's any doubt.

16, but the top monitor is a 55" TV mounted to the wall for watching movies.

Nobody ever called me normal before 🥲

[-] recklessengagement@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

11, and accurate. The only thing that stopped me was running out of display ports on my graphics card

Yeah #10 is how mine is set up. Except the center monitor is an extra wide curved monitor.

I daydream of #16

I've worked on a reverse #10 before (i.e. vertical monitor in the middle, surrounded by two landscape monitors)

Apparently Linux Torvalds works on dual 6k monitors
