I wonder if he (and others) realizes that you can set 100% scale factor, but still increase font size in the applications you use. So you still have way more space available, but you don't necessarily need a magnifying glass and you don't need to strain your eyes if the text is too small for your liking.
- nickjj 2y agoIf you increase the font size then you will lose effective space. For example in the screenshots I included in the post, I can fit 6 side by side code windows at 80 chars and have a tiny bit of room to spare. That's with a code editor font size of 10. If I doubled the font size then I'd only be able to fit 3 because text is twice as large.
- Sakos 2y agoMore than by increasing the scale of everything? Either I'm misunderstanding something or that doesn't make any sense to me.
- nickjj 2y agoIn my case the text is everything. Check the screenshot in the post: https://nickjanetakis.com/assets/blog/benq-rd320u-programming-e1e80e9481adf961160dc96cc507dc5f9095b411be66bb2f3a8b6590222e6d7f.jpg https://nickjanetakis.com/assets/blog/benq-rd320u-programmin... It's Vim buffers with practically no borders or UI. Doubling the font size would half my space because text would be twice as large.
