Anyone else find that bigger/widescreen monitors suck for coding? Idk if it's habit at this point or what but I prefer to code on my 15" laptop screen than on my widescreen 27" monitors. What's the ideal size/ratio, or maybe my settings are just wrong? It's just weird for my eyes, feel like I'm constantly darting around the screen rather than having everything in focus.

>>10866781821:9 ultrawide with side by side windows, IDE + <other thing>
Honestly 24 inches is the max amount of comfort for me given i have a small desk and sit close. I wanna 4k monitor doe cause 92 ppi sucks but then i gotta go up to 27 inches, or buy one of those weird gamer brand 24 inch 1440p monitors, not too sure what im gonna do.
>>108667818you havent shopped around enoughpicrel in vertical is excellent for programming
Is it possible to get a square monitor (new) for real cheap anymore? >>108668087600 dollars for that.
personally i actually enjoy the physical separation of multiple screens vs having one giant screen
I much prefer a bigger screen with a full-sized keyboard and mouse, laptops are too crampedIt's like eating at a big table instead of inside a car
>>108667818Aren't you supposed to get a bigass high PPI secondary monitor and use it in portrait mode? I don't program, that's what all my big-brained friends do though.
>>108667818I wish they made smaller 4k monitors, i've got a 27 and it barely fits on my desk
>>108668248portrait mode is a meme to look like you're a high performer
>>108668248Do they use vim and pretend they're real programmers? The vertical meme falls apart the moment you need a project explorer tab, a debugging tab, a docker tab, a git tab...
>>108668352I lied, I don't have friends.
>>108667818I'm using a 2560x1600 and I will never swap to anything else in my life.
You do you anon. I'm used to a 27" 4k screen and going back to a laptop sized screen annoys me every time.
