What about those who eschew multi monitor setups in favour of an ultrawide?

I’ve got a sideways monitor, a rightway monitor and a laptop all scrunched together, what does that make me?
I know it's been out for years but I don't understand anything about this meme format. Reminds me of mbti bullshit
It's an alignment chart, most commonly used for D&D (and other TTRPG) characters.
I think they're all evil with those skulls on the screen.
Chaotic good, one 32" 2560×1440 display, one old 19" 1280×1024 display (mainly used for referencing docs, for a debugger, or watching a VTuber or a conference presentation).
I am chaotic good at home with a 4K and a laptop screen
But at work it’s all 1080 monitors (unfortunately) so I have 3 and I a mix of chaotic neutral and lawful evil 😂 2 portraits then a landscape
You forgot just laptop and my other screens are just pretty pictures. Covid really changed how I work hahaha
I guess I'm LE. Its the only way my monitors would fit in my space :(
I'm a reverse Lawful Neutral; laptop on the left, monitor on the right.
Before that I had a 16:9 monitor on the left and a 4:3 monitor on the right. That doesn't seem to be in the chart anywhere.
Seriously, someone needs to start making high-quality 4:3 monitors again. Sure, they're not great for movies and modern video games, but they're great for reading.
I use a 42" 4K monitor. Same working area as 4 x 21" 1920x1080 screens but more flexible. Been doing so for ~10 years. When my old 39" 4K monitor broke I used 2 x 24 inch monitors + laptop screen for a while but I ended up buying another big monitor instead, it's just so convenient.
Chaotic neutral should be a solo laptop screen.
Chaotic evil baby. I need somewhere to read long documents, manga, man pages and configs.
Chaotic good. I refuse to get rid of the little one. My electronics only leave me when they're fubar.
Lawful good at home.
Laptop and two horizontal monitors at work. Is that lawful neutral good or neutral good lawful?
Personally, I think it's probably neutral awful - one is HDMI and the other is VGA.
I'm lawful neutral monitorally but ideologically chaotic neutral. This and that then.
The "tie fighter" setup of vertical, horizontal, vertical, gives me nausea
Neutral good for personal. Lawful good for work.
Chaotic neutral isn't that bad when you're doing programming since the extra vertical space is really convenient.
I've been lawful neutral ever since the pandemic forced work from home.
Lawful Neutral + Chaotic Evil...
I have so many screens...
Chaotic good but I REALLY vibe with that chaotic evil
Chaotic good but smaller monitor is on the left, only because I had one shitty monitor I got on sale right out of high school and eventually bought a much nicer but slightly smaller one later.
Due to a mistake I made, I'm chaotic good instead of neutral good. Current set-up is a 27" 1080p HDMI on the left, and 24" 1080p VGA on the right. Not too much in a hurry to replace my smaller monitor though, I need to upgrade my graphics card first to allow for a HDMI-HDMI configuration at least.
Lawful neutral, though my laptop is up on a stand to bring it to the height of the monitor, so maybe chaotic good?
Chaotic neutral vibin with stream on the right and game on front
Honestly, these days I just work directly on my laptop. Get to use touchpad gestures which is nice, grilling my hands under CPU load maybe less nice.
It's usually enough to just alt+tab between my IDE and browser, so my workflow hasn't suffered much.
I'm on the third Z axis of this chart
two screens same size to the front, laptop on a riser to my left, at a right angle, third, smaller screen to the left of that connected to a second laptop
Chaotic good looking to become chaotic gooder with a third misshapen monitor.
I have four screens from four different manufacturers, with three different sizes, three different resolutions, two different aspect ratios and two different refresh rates.
Two of these are resurrected from the dead of which one has a high voltage cold cathode driver externally plastered to it's back (because the internal failed and there was no space inside) and the other one shining from every pore because I "replaced" one cold cathode tube by plastering the "replacement" tube somewhere in the housing of the monitor to fool the driver into thinking all tubes are fine (one was defect, the driver doesn't work without every tube connected and putting the replacement in the place where it should belong is too much work).
I am basically the evil necromancer of chaotic evil.
