I dislike using the laptop screen because it causes you to have poor posture. Even if my laptop screen was a retina display that was better than a normal monitor I would still use a monitor for my back's sake.
As for multiple monitors, I have tried it for a while but much prefer a single 24" screen. When I've had multiple monitors I ended up hardly ever using the second one.

Or a MS Surface plus a little external mechanical keyboard (like a Vortex Core or Apple Magic Keyboard 2, which is surprisingly good in terms of latency and wpm). The Surface Go is actually a great cheap machine for Linux, although the screen is a tad small. But it's 3:2 aspect ratio. Laptop ergonomics is not good. I know this from long term neck problems due to 20 years on laptops, before switching back to desktops.
- ran1212 7y agoYes, posture is also a reason why I'm thinking about this. I've never had any neck problems and I want it to stay that way.
