forget a 3rd monitor, you need 1 giant curved one.
Suuuucks for development at least, it's too small to divide into 3 zones, and if you divide by 2 you will just end up with a kink in your neck from always looking to the side. I'd rather have a single 27" with infinite virtual desktops I can shuffle around, than a 49" (my 49" has actually been collecting dust in storage for a couple of years now).
I bought a 49” super ultrawide to replace my dual monitor setup and I found while 32:9 gaming I still wanted to watch fullscreen videos so I added back my 27”. Might add back my other 27” so I can do fullscreen discord/other stuff. Lemme tell you, SUW absolutely ruins a person.
I finally joined the club and got a 34” curved monitor this month. Pretty good so far. It has also cleared up space on my desk instead several monitors taking up most of it. I still use my laptop as an extra screen to the side though.
I hate curved monitors, can’t stand the distorted image. Fortunately there are a few non-curved ultrawides on the market.
I went curved and now the flat monitors at work are annoying because the far edges are too far away ='(

I already feel less lonely just thinking about it.
Me having a third monitor: No.
A fourth one!
He has four, the laptop is just partially closed.
Your monitors just doesn't has enough hrz.
Don't make me downvote you
Knowing you have N monitors, the perfect amount is N+1
idk. How about a 4th one too?
Having the standard three and a top center is perfect way to run a dual personal/work PC setup in my experience.
the wasd layout, lol
I bring a portable monitor from home to work to have 4 screens 💀
Anything but talking to other people
I use my third monitor explicitly for talking to other people, specifically email, teams, and sms.
If anyone is running multi-monitor on Windows, I highly recommend trying Actual Window Manager.
Well of course, how else are you going to enjoy 3rd monitor content?
Given that her other suggestion is pickleball, I'm going to guess that the old adage of "if a headline is a question, the answer is usually just no" holds up..
Have three monitors. Can confirm.
Considering a fourth.
go for it! i have four (three 27" 1440p monitors on the main group and one 22" 1080p to the side for diagnostics
and for wallpaper engine because i like my wallpapers too much and otherwise i'd just keep a monitor empty all the time) but i'm considering four more. like four small 1080p monitors mounted above the three main ones for docs, discord, whatever
I got a 3rd monitor so it will be nice and symmetrical
As a coder, I do feel lonely with only 2 monitors.
Portrait oriented monitor will warm your heart from the inside.
But now I can only fit one file per monitor! You get some, you lose some.
Come on lads, we all know what the third monitor is for
One for game, one for Discord/Browser, one for stream Labs when recording/temp monitoring.
Can't imagine what else you'd need a full monitor for (ಠ_ಠ)
Porn, my friend. Porn.
It's for angling with it's back more towards the door in case the Mrs walks in. It buys a few more seconds of safety.
Precisely
In total, I, a chronically single man, have 6 monitors and 2 TVs. I am very much in this picture and I don’t like it.
You need one for the programming IDE, one for stackexchange/ChatGPT, and one for Youtube/social media/porn. I thought that's the standard configuration.
How is “male” loneliness different from loneliness…?
Men are lonely for different reasons then women
But what about the fourth monitor?
No, it's five, you can only have an odd number or else it's very awkward
6 is a very normal arrangement
yes
For some reason, I read it as “male baldness” and found it even funnier.
Maybe, but I need a bigger desk first. 2 24's as far as I can get them already fill my field of view.
