I finally got my 4th screen setup last week. Needed something for those pesky chrome debugger windows :)

🚩 Atul Prajapati 🇮🇳 • Jul 1 '20

Beautiful 😍

Bjoern • Jul 1 '20

Wow!

Matt seymour • Jul 1 '20

Do you not get a sore neck?

Mike Talbot ⭐ • Jul 1 '20

Lol, no it's more that I can focus on two screens at a time! Left doc/middle code/right running code/far right debugger

Mike Talbot ⭐ • Jul 1 '20

Did I just suggest I have a "far-right debugger"??? - I want to take this opportunity to distance myself from anything far-right lol.

Frederik 👨‍💻➡️🌐 Creemers • Jul 1 '20

If only we could debug the far-right tendencies in our societies. I'd love that.

Gyudong-Han • Jul 1 '20

Wonderful!!

Saloni Yadav • Jul 1 '20

🥺🥺🥺 I want a station like this

Josh Puetz • Jul 2 '20

Props for that portrait display!

Stefan • Jul 8 '20

Perfect, my dream.

Peter Kassenaar • Jul 8 '20

May I ask what kind of graphics card and ports you have to address 4 individual monitors?

Mike Talbot ⭐ • Jul 8 '20

It's the Mac's internal GFX for the first 3. The "most right" one is driven by a StarTech.com USB GFX card (which can handle 2 4k displays).

Peter Kassenaar • Jul 8 '20

Ah, so there's room for a fifth one, I see ;-)

Mike Talbot ⭐ • Jul 8 '20

Yep - the original plan was for screen 4 to be above my right screen. However I bought the wrong kind of arm and it was too low by about 5cm, so yeah, I know where it would live too if I could buy the right kit next time!

Mine

Which chair, I am looking for a new one.

Alexandru-Dan Pop • Jul 1 '20 • Edited

It's from my area so I don't know if you can get one (supporting the local economy, hehe), but here's the link, I'm sure there are a lot similar:

Main features I was looking for was: it needed to have a head rest, adjustable lombar support, adjustable armrests.

If you have a plant on your desk, what is it? 🌱🌿

Stefanos Kouroupis • Jul 1 '20

My setup gets weirder, with every new lockdown

Arika O • Jul 1 '20 • Edited

Nice keyboards, where did you get them from?

Stefanos Kouroupis • Jul 1 '20

the front one is a vortex Pok3r with custom DSA keycaps. The back one is a whitefox again with mostly blank DSA keycaps. I am one of those people with keyboard obsessions.

Gyudong-Han • Jul 1 '20

What is the name of that a small keyboard with 8 keys?

Stefanos Kouroupis • Jul 1 '20

Max Falcon 8, is one of the few macro pads that are publicly available

Arika O • Jul 1 '20

I write code like a psychopath: on a laptop, with no extra monitors.

Gyudong-Han • Jul 1 '20

Not bad, really simple.

Stephanie Handsteiner • Jul 1 '20

You and me both are programming away like psychopaths solely on our laptop screens.

Chitab koret • Jul 1 '20

Am here too

Frederik 👨‍💻➡️🌐 Creemers • Jul 1 '20

Single laptop screen crew!

But because of my visual impairment, I could never really work with a multi screen setup comfortably.

Josh Puetz • Jul 2 '20

Lovely, I dig the flowers :)

Arika O • Jul 2 '20

Thank you :).

JPBlancoDB • Jul 1 '20

Here is mine 🤓

Josh Puetz • Jul 2 '20

Portrait orientation 🙌🏻

Marco Aigner • Jul 1 '20 • Edited

Keep it short and simple at home 🎉

As a student currently developing my first mayor web-app as part of my bachelor thesis, i am given the privilege to work at home, using my own setup.

Josh Puetz • Jul 2 '20

Ooh: I like how your monitors are floating!

Marco Aigner • Jul 2 '20 • Edited

Thank you!

This setup was a long way with many iterations until this point, but now I am really happy with what it has turned out as.

The wall-mounting has three advantages in my case:

I can keep my head straight while looking directly at the monitor
Cleaning the desk has become easier
My pc serves as my tv as well. In front of my desk I got my couch. With the wall mount I can pull the monitor back towards the couch to some extend :)
