Cool stuff, but doesn't look like a setup I would enjoy. I hate it when in front of me there is a gap between monitors. Instead, I am using a Dell 32inch directly in front of me, iMac 27inch to the right of me, and Dell 27inch portrait to the left of me.

Nice tanning bed.

  I am using dark mode, mate. Also, I really don't have any need for artificial tanning :-)

That's _exactly_ my setup. But I cannot understand why there are no reasonably priced 5K or 6K monitors of around 30-35 inch. I would buy one in a heartbeat.

  It will happen eventually. Until then, 4K is good enough for me.

  I've got a modest 32 inch 4K monitor and I can't work on it comfortably without scaling it to 150%. With 5k or 6k I imagine I'd have to scale it more. 4K is sharp but it takes some work getting used to it. You don't gain that much screen real estate if you don't have eyes like a hawk.

    Well I want larger monitors as well. I've been using a 40 inch 4K monitor in another setup and it works well for coding at 100%. Entire functions on screen without the need to scroll. But anything else than coding the resolution is a bit grainy at 4K.

Do you have any neck pain :). Seriously, I used to have a 24 inch display in landscape mode right next to a 32 inch monitor and I had terrible neck pain. I couldn't turn my head to the other side where I had no monitor. I switched back to a single 32 inch and increased the scaling. Neck pain went away.

  Oh wow, that sounds bad! No, no neck pain at all. I am also scaling the resolutions. I use the monitor in front of me as my main monitor, and the other ones just for supporting information like docs. Also a comfy chair which can turn helps!
