- jedberg 7y agoDo you have issues or complaints about that setup? Would you do it the other way if you could?
- uberman 7y agoI could switch it if I wanted to, but for me, I feel like the slightly smaller 1920 is just the right size and resolution for me to concentrate on. If I had any complaint, it would be that I might prefer it if my primary monitor was able to rotate 90 degrees into portrait mode. I know some can, but the ones I have do not. My side (right hand) 4k is about the right size and resolution for 4 tiled 1024 windows that I keep open all the time. Email, Slack, Git Client, Web Browser. Any additional windows I open I then to slide off to the side monitor as well. This keeps my primary monitor mostly reserved for my IDE. For what it is worth, I have a second workstation counter clockwise to my left with a mirrored config to my primary workstation. My office is like a kind of mini-command center. My chair is basically in the center of an octagon shaped room. My desk rests against 5 of the sides of the octagon.
- jedberg 7y agoThat sounds like a sweet setup. Thanks for the input!
