I'm not sure what you find unusable but i'm using Window Maker at 2560x1440 (i assume that is what you mean with 2K) perfectly fine[0].
Though note that the overwhelming majority of monitors out there isn't 2K or greater but 1080p and 768p[1] :-P.

- zare_st 3y agoUnusable might be a tough word but I come from a viewpoint where I had wmaker install 10 years ago that could rival big desktop environments in usability and sleekness and looks but it was still NeXT-alike. Big part of it was GTK2-GNUstep theme which made GTK apps feel "native" and there was something for QT too. Can you put up some screenshots with GTK/QT "modern" apps floating around too? Also I can't believe you are not finding that text size too small. I have 27" screen, great vision, sitting at a normal distance, everything is just too small. It's not unusable in strict sense but if you have problems with tiny text on big screen it would be. P.S. for firefox stats I think we're mixing apples and oranges, OP asked about "workstation", and those are are worldwide client stats, so you have a lot of laptops and a lot of legacy computers in it
