Always wanted a double monitor set up since i was a little boy
All that tells me is that you will buy stuff because you want it not because you need it.

I considered getting a second monitor because of work, but I can't justify shelling out 200+ europoor dollars for something I won't use that often
Using a 2nd monitor has to become a habit. I'd suggest starting out learning how you manage real estate on your main before just throwing stuff over to the other.
For instance, I have two 1920 x 1080 displays, a laptop and a smaller monitor which is slightly above the size of a tablet screen. I play a lot of my games at 1024 x 768 resolution or below, so it's already possible to have a game running while watching youtube or whatever. Since my work requires partitioning my main display into equal halves, I've trained myself to use my 2nd monitor for playing videos since I otherwise would have to turn on my actual TV.
Moral of the story though is that multiple monitors is kind of a meme.
If you need it for work then its absolutely worth it, but its just for personal use you’re gonna end up not using it like OP
>playing videogames while watching youtube
My 8 y/o nephew does this. Pretty sure he's mentally handicapped or something but he does exactly the same.
play pool of radiance and put the journal on the second monitor
tech should be bought to fulfill needs, not desires
you only get a 2nd monitor if you work, consistently every day
otherwise you're just consooming for no reason
>get triple monitor setup
>one of them is for cooming
>one for gaming
>one for lurking and is vertical
Absolute kino
dual monitor has always been for redditors who can't into workspaces
That's 90% of commerce
I have a 4:3 monitor that I use as my discord screen and that's about it
It only cost me $10 from a thrift store so it's not some hi refresh gaymen monitor and I don't care
Yeah and it's fucked.
I happenstantially started uses a dual-monitor setup when I got a PC with an actual monitor and stopped using the shitty cheap Walmart TV. I can't go back.
I have three monitors for my work. Two for work and 1 for anime while I work
If this allows you be productive and feel well; you are golden. Keep going
What does your day look like, if I may ask? I'm curious now.
>5.30am wake up, shower, breakfast, water flowerbed
>7am work start
>8am daily update meeting
>11am lunch for an hour, usually go for a walk to get out of the house
>12pm back to work, usually start working at 100% concentration at this point
>4pm sign off
Sometimes I have to work longer, especially if I've been goofing off too much and have a deadline, but as long as I get the work in on time nobody really cares when I do it.
Doesn't sound bad at all. As a NEET I envy your position
I hope this routine serves you well
i use my 2nd monitor for ez access to firefox/foobar at all times + steam chat windows, don't think i could ever go back to a single monitor now
i can't into watching something and playing a video game at the same time, even if it's something braindead
It's pretty good. I was an office salaryman for a decade before getting this role. It was fully remote before the pandemic so I never had to worry about being summoned back to the office. I hope more people get to have this, sitting in traffic every day for hours is soul-crushing and unnecessary.
Hope you break out of NEETdom user, the small career and money gains you get from showing up every day when you're young will last a lifetime.
