    I feel a little cramped for space with 4 monitors these days. 6 is actually my preferred setup, but I don’t have the desk space for it.

      I find 2 per PC is my useful limit. Which means my current 5 isn’t quite enough. Monitor arms are always a challenge at that scale, though.

        I agree, two is probably the productive limit as long as you only have one mouse cursor. But I just got a dual screen laptop with touch on both. I can easily slip between a soure document, destination document and have a web page or other tool open for research it’s kind of classy.

          As a software dev, i like having 3. Gives me space to see

          • console output and debug info on the left
          • my code editor in the center
          • and my browser on the right

          Or having multiple vscode windows and a browser

          I also move windows around using the keyboard (win + left / right), and the task switcher (alt + tab)

            My current setup has 6, but that’s across 3 PCs and a devkit.

      My work laptop’s graphics card maxes out at 4. I’m pretty sad about it.
