Since I have two desktop tower computers which I use 95% of the time, I use them with a ViewSonic 32" external monitor in 1920 x 1080 resolution.

Linux Debian 13.1 (Trixie) Xfce w/Pale Moon, Waterfox, Firefox

ViewSonic
We are a ViewSonic family here. Our TV (with tuner), and 3 current monitors (and all past monitors) are/have been ViewSonic. I can't wait to buy another. :D

My main daily monitors are 21" and 30", both run at max resolution (3840 × 2160) with zero OS scaling and I think a single ~34" 8K monitor would finally make me satisfied with enough screen real estate. But dual 4k monitors is pretty decent, a setup I used to have at work.
