They're for us dorks who like to like to chase efficiency in both screen real estate and keyboard navigation. A nice TWM combined with either a 21:9 or (my personal favorite) 16:18 ratio is pure bliss.
Just give me more monitors and Iβm happy.
Give me one big monitor and I'll set up 10 virtual desktops to switch between on it and I'm happy
Plasma's Activities make up for some of my monitor shortfalls.
That's fine. I'm running two DualUps (16:18) with a TWM, and it's amazing. I wish they weren't a discontinued display, or else I'd add a third.
So that's effectively 2 monitors in a single case?
Stop, I can only get so erect.
It's literally two panels without a bezel between. You can run full-screen with one input, or go into PIP mode and drive each individual panel with a different input.
And apparently discontinued. Goddammit.
Yeah, that's what I was lamenting. I want to add a third to my array, but stock is depleted everywhere and there's no sign yet they will manufacture an updated model.
Ah, a fellow DualUp evangelist. it's a pity they didn't catch on that much.
It really is a shame. I think right out the door being only 60hz probably hurt their adoption. But really, the ratio just doesn't shine with your average, floating WM that most users are only accustomed to.
I'm not a fan of TWMs so I use this: https://store.kde.org/p/2334027
