I never understood the obsession with multiple screens. Isn’t it better to be obsessed with one giant screen? That way you don’t get black bars in front of you.

Edit:

I got to clarify. I’m talking about a single ultra wide screen with high resolution but also scaling so texts aren’t super small. There are gaming ones that are OLED so great color and performance. Both windows and Mac OS have software that lets you split in half or 1/3 + 2/3 (which you can’t do with two screens).

It’s ultra wide so you can look left and right and not top and bottom.

If you’re connecting a laptop, you’ll have a tiny screen for slack or a video or something.

I do agree that it’s more expensive.

I strongly agree, which is why I use a single 65" 4K gaming TV, instead of 4x 32" 1080p monitors arranged in a grid. You get the same screen real estate, minus the bezels.
