You can use a software called LittleBigMouse to make this better. It's really nice in my experience with 2 1080p screens and one 4k. All roughly the same size
I'm not using it as much as I should be, but it is genuinely a pleasant improvement over sitting all day long. A really expensive chair can do you a lot of good, but nothing beats the mobility of standing. When I read something or watch something I can do some light exercise for my legs, squatting a tiny bit and moving my upper body left and right for example. For a lot of people it can be a good start to moving their body a bit more.
If you go running every other day you don't need it, I'll give you that.
This would 100% be my setup if I could use more than two monitors. I am incapable of having just one project at at time open, and this would just work so well for me.
I'm sort of that. I've got two landscape and one portrait monitor, the portrait one is good for browsing websites like this one where there's a lot of vertical text. I actually find myself preferring the landscape ones for coding since my IDE has a lot of stuff in sidebars and also some of the lines of text are very long.
I am technically, but I almost never turn on my second (vertical) monitor. Usually when I have my main set to a different source and I want something from my desktop PC on the other monitor.
Don't take the chart seriously. Pretty much all of these setups are good for their uses and are done by someobdy, even certain forms of "chaotic evil".
I'm a mix between chaotic neutral and lawful neutral. I have a vertical monitor on my left which is mainly for slack + documents. Center screen for code and what ever I'm focused on and laptop screen on the right for calendar, email, other not in focus things.
I'm chaotic neutral too but I don't code on the diagonal monitor. I only have it diagonal because my neck hurts looking at the side screen if I have them both horizontal lol
It's still going to be better than screen on budget laptops. I am convinced my laptop's screen is 30Hz and it surely wasn't manufactured to produce colors.
You can tell xrandr anything, it doesn't have to be physically connected. So you could get 3960x1080 virtual screen space for a single vertical HD screen. If you move your mouse to the edge of the screen it will scroll what is visible. I discovered it in my triple monitor setup. I turn off screens I don't need (they waste like 30W!), but the script I wrote to notify X11 of these changes doesn't work as reliably as I would like, lol. Also duplicate polybar sometimes, haha.
Not sure how useful this is, because while the application thinks it has all this screen space available you can't actually see all of it at once.
Even at thrift stores it's usually not too hard to find a pair with matching size and resolution which are the two big considerations. Getting screens with identical pixel sizes makes all the difference.
It was the only way I could get my monitors connected to my standing desk. Now I only need to figure out if subjecting hard drives to motor vibrations is risky, or if they can handle a bit of shaking when switching between sitting and standing.
Yeah man! I have a wifi receiver/repeater, UPS, audio mic amplifier, and the PC mounted under. I move every 6 months and this lets me simplify having a workspace. I like being able to wheel the desk around.
I'm Chaotic Neutral (although my vertical monitor is on the left). It was an experiment that stuck because I like being able to read more lines of code at once.
One thing I will say: anyone who has a single window spanned across multiple monitors needs battering. "Oh, yah, I fookin' love 'aving un two-centimeter black bar in middul of me Word doccumant". Unhinged sociopaths, all of them.
Unfortunately I got it at a thrift shop and there are no stickers.
Googling for "pulley lamp" shows me one that looks very similar:
"Carbon Loft Tirith Industrial Farmhouse Table Lamp with Pulley System"
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 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.
4k is clutch, I have this, tiled windows, and universal zoom enabled so I can zoom on one thing and the 4k means it's perfectly legible, the zoom out for the full view
I've got my laptop, main 32" inch monitor, and a 27" vertical monitor on the other side. So am I a lawful chaotic neutral? Chaotic lawful neutral? Truly true neutral? Also, one is connected through HDMI and the other is connected through DVI.
Not a programmer, but I run Neutral Good + Lawful Neutral at the office, because my work issued a docking station with two symmetrical monitors, but they also issued me a laptop instead of a desktop, so what am going to do, not use the third monitor?
So, it's ugly, but it works since I either put baseball on one of the big monitors or Spotify on the laptop, and work on the other two.
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.
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.
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.
I have a good 27" as my main, but I don't have space for a 2nd 27" to either side -- best I can fit is a 24". So I guess I'm chaotic good by (forced) choice.
I guess I'm chaotic neutral. I've never had enough money to buy two of the same monitor. All of my stuff is stuff I got either for free from school or for extremely cheap.
So, Lawful Neutral is just broke? Hunh... (Counts on fingers: druids, monks, cloistered scholars...) Yeah, that tracks.
Also, ofc I'm Chaotic Neutral. Pfft. I blame Elite Dangerous, as I was once Neutral Good, but then discovered what the game was like on an Index, and then there was no reason for the monitors to start that way anymore. 🤷🏼♂️
Once I got a widescreen monitor, I finally ditched the rest and only use my laptop as the extra screen. So lawful neutral but set up like lawful evil but lower.
I think the closest is chaotic good although I have three monitors, two smaller ones on each side and a bigger one in the center so kinda lawful good too.
I'm both chaotic good and lawful neutral, depending if it's for my job or not. I suppose that's a fair assessment of the difference between my professional character and home character.
I find them super useful when screen sharing in a meeting because you can just share the secondary display and all your other crap (and notifications!) can stay on the main display.
So if you have a monitor hooked up to a desktop on the left, and a separate laptop running a different OS on the right, is it lawful neutral or true neutral x 2?
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
So, would using a monitor and a phone screen be lawful neutral too? Because that's what I usually do if I need to look up things for whatever I'm doing and don't want to boot up my desktop web browser.
A neat trick I learned recently. The vertical /smaller/secondary monitor should go on different sides for different people. Hold a finger close to your face and close one eye and then the other. Whichever eye more closely matches the both-eye image is your dominant eye and is where your secondary monitor should go.
Used to be a chaotic neutral, but realised that a full screen video doesn't work well with a display in portrait orientation (and even if I have a laptop below, it's too small). Neutral good right now with two 27"s; might add a 34" later on.
True neutral right now, but since I'm already here, does anyone know if curved monitor is viable as a secondary display? I already have the monitor around, but since it's not rotatable I can't really try this setup for myself.
It'd be 27' 1440p flat horizontally (main) and 24' 1080p curved vertically next to it.
I was Lawful Neutral, but gave my monitors to my wife in exchange for a better single monitor. Nothing special, just a 27" Samsung w/ a high refresh rate and richer blacks that I found difficult to achieve with my old monitors. I found that I rarely (if ever) used both of them. Only while looking up information in MMOs like Classic WoW, but I play those so seldom these days that I'm getting a lot out of a single.
Lol my set up is a 22" 1080p on the left for basic web viewing, 28" 1440p center for games, and a 32" 1080p on the right for videos/twitch while I'm playing games
i have chaotic neutral right now -- would it be insane to have the middle monitor be vertical then the side be horizontal? i usually use the horizontal for videos or sports but that makes more sense off to the side, then vertical is great for scrolling
I have chaotic neutral setup for quite a while. Like 15 years lol. The vertical started out as a monitor for the Photoshop palettes and this kind of stuff. Then it became the monitor for checking websites in 1024px and nowadays it's mostly terminal windows. I love to have a great scope of output in the viewport.
I'm the opposite. I can't have two monitors of the same size, because then it's like they're both primaries in my brain. With the chaotic good arrangement, it's very clear which one runs the games and which one runs YouTube or what have you
Chaotic good here. They have different DPI too so you're never quite sure where your mouse is going to end up.
OK, calm down Satan....
You can use a software called LittleBigMouse to make this better. It's really nice in my experience with 2 1080p screens and one 4k. All roughly the same size
Chaotic good (3 displays) here
My old monitor is not going to waste :)
So, uh, I have no idea if my chaotic good monitors have different dpi. I guess I'm just used to it lol
where does diagonal fall?
I feel like all in the chaotic column should have at least one diagonal monitor.
Hell, probably.
What about this?
Imagine having to manually adjust your tint setting. NTSC, man. Literally shaking in my SMH.

It's a standing desk?
I never seen a standing desk honestly, I thought it was a meme more than anything else.
I have a sitting/standing desk, at home and when h have to go into the office.
I use them to… sit.
I'm not using it as much as I should be, but it is genuinely a pleasant improvement over sitting all day long. A really expensive chair can do you a lot of good, but nothing beats the mobility of standing. When I read something or watch something I can do some light exercise for my legs, squatting a tiny bit and moving my upper body left and right for example. For a lot of people it can be a good start to moving their body a bit more.
If you go running every other day you don't need it, I'll give you that.
It’s an adjustable sit/stand desk. Its in sitting position in this picture
I don’t put much stuff up at the top that has small detail or need to look at alot
Needs more RGB.
Wait till you find out how pixels work
TvTooHigh! I think we even have a community here for it already!
Chaotic evil here. No regrets.
Stock exchange broker's home setup.
So jealous of the foot heater.
This would 100% be my setup if I could use more than two monitors. I am incapable of having just one project at at time open, and this would just work so well for me.
Am I the only chaotic neutral here? I code on the right and do everything else on the left.
I'm chaotic neutral but with a third monitor on the left.
Is the third monitor horizontal or vertical?
The middle and left monitors are both horizontal and the right monitor is vertical
So three monitors is where the real magic begins?!
Nope. I'm a new convert and I love it. Laptop monitor to the left of the big landscape for random screens. It's fantastic
Fellow chaotic neutral here, basically same here. code on vertical screen + some articles for easier reading and everything else on the main screen
Represent.
I'm sort of that. I've got two landscape and one portrait monitor, the portrait one is good for browsing websites like this one where there's a lot of vertical text. I actually find myself preferring the landscape ones for coding since my IDE has a lot of stuff in sidebars and also some of the lines of text are very long.
I am technically, but I almost never turn on my second (vertical) monitor. Usually when I have my main set to a different source and I want something from my desktop PC on the other monitor.
Don't take the chart seriously. Pretty much all of these setups are good for their uses and are done by someobdy, even certain forms of "chaotic evil".
I'm a mix between chaotic neutral and lawful neutral. I have a vertical monitor on my left which is mainly for slack + documents. Center screen for code and what ever I'm focused on and laptop screen on the right for calendar, email, other not in focus things.
I'm chaotic neutral too but I don't code on the diagonal monitor. I only have it diagonal because my neck hurts looking at the side screen if I have them both horizontal lol
Oh, that's Brilliant. I'm going to try this out
Another chaotic neutral here. I need my vertical display.
There are dozens of us!
"Chaotic Good"
aka "I got this monitor for free from someone else"
I feel attacked, the pc came with a 4:3 monitor for you information... the bigger one was a the gift
Tbf, I say that as someone that lived the Chaotic Good monitor life for like, a decade with a monitor my family was throwing away.
For me it was more I upgraded my main monitor so my old main monitor is now a side monitor.
what about having a tv across the room as a second monitor?
If you only use the TV to watch media, you're lawful neutral. If you use it for gaming or anything else, you're chaotic good.
It's still going to be better than screen on budget laptops. I am convinced my laptop's screen is 30Hz and it surely wasn't manufactured to produce colors.
Hah, I'm just gaming on a laptop but one that's connected to my TV
Ummmm... how about 2 vertical monitors above each other?
That's how I got this long ass screenshot, for example:
I don't know how else to do that, so I fixed it with hardware ʘ‿ʘ
But otherwise, true neutral.
Ultrawide flipped vertical?
Like this monstrosity Samsung released. I remember seeing videos of people using it thinking it was the goofiest shit
You can tell xrandr anything, it doesn't have to be physically connected. So you could get 3960x1080 virtual screen space for a single vertical HD screen. If you move your mouse to the edge of the screen it will scroll what is visible. I discovered it in my triple monitor setup. I turn off screens I don't need (they waste like 30W!), but the script I wrote to notify X11 of these changes doesn't work as reliably as I would like, lol. Also duplicate polybar sometimes, haha.
Not sure how useful this is, because while the application thinks it has all this screen space available you can't actually see all of it at once.
Hard disagree. More monitors is morally better.
Vertical monitors are good for code, too.
One monitor isn't true neutral. It's broke-ass bitch. That's me. I'm a broke-ass bitch.
If you don't care about them matching, thrift stores can have some really good deals.
Even at thrift stores it's usually not too hard to find a pair with matching size and resolution which are the two big considerations. Getting screens with identical pixel sizes makes all the difference.
I buy all my monitors on Craigslist because I am broke as hell and people unload 1080p monitors with chunky bezels cheaply
It's not how I would want to be all the time, but Chaotic Neutral is really great for reviewing documents in a PDF.
I run chaotic neutral plus a laptop to the side. The vertical monitor is home to chat and Spotify.
That's my setup except I have a 3rd monitor in portrait orientation on the other side too.
Yah, i will also choose this if i want to have 2 monitor.
How about only a laptop monitor?
Yeah, it's missing: [Laptop] [Monitor 1] [Monitor 2]
or the Chaotic version: [Monitor 1] [Laptop] [Monitor 2]
That don't you look down at my corner office desk setup! It's balance. 32" 1440p, 14" 1080p, 32" 1440p. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.
And what about using a 65" 4K TV to replace four 32" 1080p monitors? Where do I fall on this chart?
What about using Android Tab or Phones as second monitor?
I understand a tablet, but using a phone for the second monitor?
Enough for System stats, or a music player (especially if you can use it for input too, without it tabbing out of games)
I guess it would work for notes f.ex. Or something like colour palettes

Yeah man! I have a wifi receiver/repeater, UPS, audio mic amplifier, and the PC mounted under. I move every 6 months and this lets me simplify having a workspace. I like being able to wheel the desk around.
So Chaotic Evil just gets way more screen real estate than everybody else?
With great screen estate comes great window management…
No, with tiling window managers comes great window management!
Love my lawful evil setup, works great!
At home: Chaotic good but with three monitors that are all different sizes
At work: Two monitors side by side, and then one above them
Not a programmer though, I make videos
for future reference, it's even more convenient to use when you know to change GUI scale settings to configure them to align with the physical space
I'm Chaotic Neutral (although my vertical monitor is on the left). It was an experiment that stuck because I like being able to read more lines of code at once.
I'm pretty much chaotic evil, with a laptop.
One thing I will say: anyone who has a single window spanned across multiple monitors needs battering. "Oh, yah, I fookin' love 'aving un two-centimeter black bar in middul of me Word doccumant". Unhinged sociopaths, all of them.

Dunno, but I would like to know more about your lamp
Unfortunately I got it at a thrift shop and there are no stickers. Googling for "pulley lamp" shows me one that looks very similar: "Carbon Loft Tirith Industrial Farmhouse Table Lamp with Pulley System"
Thanks for that!

basically neutral good without bezels
And what about the ones who just use a 50” TV
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 think they're all evil with those skulls on the screen.
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.
4k is clutch, I have this, tiled windows, and universal zoom enabled so I can zoom on one thing and the 4k means it's perfectly legible, the zoom out for the full view
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've got my laptop, main 32" inch monitor, and a 27" vertical monitor on the other side. So am I a lawful chaotic neutral? Chaotic lawful neutral? Truly true neutral? Also, one is connected through HDMI and the other is connected through DVI.
Not a programmer, but I run Neutral Good + Lawful Neutral at the office, because my work issued a docking station with two symmetrical monitors, but they also issued me a laptop instead of a desktop, so what am going to do, not use the third monitor?
So, it's ugly, but it works since I either put baseball on one of the big monitors or Spotify on the laptop, and work on the other two.
The "tie fighter" setup of vertical, horizontal, vertical, gives me nausea
Like this? :p
I guess I'm LE. Its the only way my monitors would fit in my space :(
I actually prefer the stacked setup, myself, regardless of space.
You forgot just laptop and my other screens are just pretty pictures. Covid really changed how I work hahaha
Chaotic good. I refuse to get rid of the little one. My electronics only leave me when they're fubar.
I'm lawful neutral monitorally but ideologically chaotic neutral. This and that then.
I have the chaotic neutral setup and the open notebook as a third monitor. Does that resolve to true neutral too?
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.
Why is it neutral evil to have a monitor without a face?
You don't have a soul trapped inside your desktop wallpaper?
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.
My setup isn't featured, but it's basically neutral good with the laptop below it in the middle.
This is the way.
Lawful Neutral reporting in!
Hello fellow compatriot, I'm not a programmer but this is definitely my work set up. Now to be a lawful person but judge everybody.
Not a programmer either but this is the only setup I can do in my studio at home. At work however it's a 4 screen setup as Chaotic Good.
Let the judgement begin!
Lawful Evil at work Neutral Good at home Shockingly accurate about more than just the monitors!
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.
No one is chaotic good because they want to be. We are chaotic good because 2 good monitors is expensive.
So true lol
I have a good 27" as my main, but I don't have space for a 2nd 27" to either side -- best I can fit is a 24". So I guess I'm chaotic good by (forced) choice.
Big desks and room to put them are also expensive
Big desks mean I can't put my speakers in good locations.
I guess I'm chaotic neutral. I've never had enough money to buy two of the same monitor. All of my stuff is stuff I got either for free from school or for extremely cheap.
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.
Chaotic evil baby. I need somewhere to read long documents, manga, man pages and configs.
waiting for the "they're all evil" because using windows
Might want to zoom in a little bit there.
yes it's the linus one I'm aware
Lawful neutral, though my laptop is up on a stand to bring it to the height of the monitor, so maybe chaotic good?
I’m pretty sure I’m Chaotic Evil with 2x 1920x1200, 2x 1024x1200, a 1920x1080 and one 1366x768 but I don’t run any vertical anymore, so maybe not?
What if I use a 48 inch OLED TV as a monitor?
Gaming setup is true neutral Work from home setup is lawful neutral Office setup is chaotic evil
Chaotic neutrals wya?! Especially when I was using a Mac for work with ShiftIt
So, Lawful Neutral is just broke? Hunh... (Counts on fingers: druids, monks, cloistered scholars...) Yeah, that tracks.
Also, ofc I'm Chaotic Neutral. Pfft. I blame Elite Dangerous, as I was once Neutral Good, but then discovered what the game was like on an Index, and then there was no reason for the monitors to start that way anymore. 🤷🏼♂️
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.
I suppose I'm technically true neutral since I have a vertical monitor on one side and my laptop on the other.
Neutral good for personal. Lawful good for work.
Chaotic neutral vibin with stream on the right and game on front
Chaotic good. I got an older smaller 720p monitor as second. Hey if it works.
Same. And I fixed the 720p with a resistor kit a few years ago when it fritzed out. Some terminal fonts look great on those chunky pixels.
Somewhere between chaotic neutral & chaotic evil here.
One of a pair as portrait, the other as landscape; laptop left-aligned with landscape & base-aligned with portrait for an appropriately unholy trio.
I also use workspaces and screen sessions for maximal WTFery.
Once I got a widescreen monitor, I finally ditched the rest and only use my laptop as the extra screen. So lawful neutral but set up like lawful evil but lower.
^So, ^more ^like: lawful evil
Chaotic Evil is that stupid hacking computer in Swordfish.
Chaotic neutral except i have a vertical one on each side like a big H. I do a lot of document writing
Lawful Good, but they're all different sizes. So.. Chaotic Good? Chaotic Evil? Who knows.
Hell yeah brother
I've been neutral good, chaotic good and chaotic neutral in the past and am now lawful evil. No idea what that is supposed to mean though xD
Chaotic good looking to become chaotic gooder with a third misshapen monitor.
Hey my old monitor setup isn't here.
Main display is normal with a laptop underneath, a vertical display to the left with a laptop display on the bottom under the first monitor
that's off to the lower-right. psychotic-evil.
What about square screens?
inb4 chaotic neckpain
I'm at Chaotic Neutral, but my sim racing rig is Lawful Evil, so combined I guess it becomes Chaotic Evil.
And I love it.
I think the closest is chaotic good although I have three monitors, two smaller ones on each side and a bigger one in the center so kinda lawful good too.
We have neutral evil at my work and it sometimes hurts my soul.
..why?
They work at hell inc.
I'm both chaotic good and lawful neutral, depending if it's for my job or not. I suppose that's a fair assessment of the difference between my professional character and home character.
I'm a combination of neutral good and lawful neutral. 2 identical monitors + laptop.
What makes a person turn neutral-neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or were you just born with a heart full of neutrality?
I find them super useful when screen sharing in a meeting because you can just share the secondary display and all your other crap (and notifications!) can stay on the main display.
I've got three monitors and a few other PCs that are all interconnected so I can mouse off one on to another.
I just turn my chair
I have a chaotic neutral setup for work.
Great for PDFs and word documents!
So if you have a monitor hooked up to a desktop on the left, and a separate laptop running a different OS on the right, is it lawful neutral or true neutral x 2?
Chaotic Neutral, if you align the secondary monitor right Everything Works™
At work I have chaotic neutral but I slot my laptop underneath the landscape screen so it fits snugly in the corner.
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
I'm neutral impoverished.
All of these are good and sometimes necessary except the bottom-right.
So, would using a monitor and a phone screen be lawful neutral too? Because that's what I usually do if I need to look up things for whatever I'm doing and don't want to boot up my desktop web browser.
Chaotic neutral
Chaotic neutral - Laptop + larger monitor
A neat trick I learned recently. The vertical /smaller/secondary monitor should go on different sides for different people. Hold a finger close to your face and close one eye and then the other. Whichever eye more closely matches the both-eye image is your dominant eye and is where your secondary monitor should go.

Chaotic Neutral. Sounds about right.
Chaotic neutral converted to true neutral when my 2nd one broke then I realized I didn't miss it much
I'm in between chaotic neutral and neutral evil I guess.

Used to be a chaotic neutral, but realised that a full screen video doesn't work well with a display in portrait orientation (and even if I have a laptop below, it's too small). Neutral good right now with two 27"s; might add a 34" later on.
True neutral right now, but since I'm already here, does anyone know if curved monitor is viable as a secondary display? I already have the monitor around, but since it's not rotatable I can't really try this setup for myself.
It'd be 27' 1440p flat horizontally (main) and 24' 1080p curved vertically next to it.
I was Lawful Neutral, but gave my monitors to my wife in exchange for a better single monitor. Nothing special, just a 27" Samsung w/ a high refresh rate and richer blacks that I found difficult to achieve with my old monitors. I found that I rarely (if ever) used both of them. Only while looking up information in MMOs like Classic WoW, but I play those so seldom these days that I'm getting a lot out of a single.
I'm lawful neutral but I never look at my laptop screen when it's hooked up to the external monitor.
This just seems random, but then I remember the 24 bad guys in Evil CTU using vertical monitors, so maybe there’s something in it.

What is 3 landscape monitors with 1 portrait monitor?
Rotate Loss 90 degrees
Did no one notice the Linus meme face taking place of the Winblows flag?
I have chaotic good
I'm lawful neutral at the office, and true neutral at home!
Lawful neutral. I use a laptop instead of a desktop so I have no choice. I would get a second monitor but it would things very cramped.
Lol my set up is a 22" 1080p on the left for basic web viewing, 28" 1440p center for games, and a 32" 1080p on the right for videos/twitch while I'm playing games
Lawful neutral for me.
Apparently the school requires me to be at the extreme end of lawful neutral. Two views, nonidentical, very different in size.
At home: Chaotic good but with three monitors that are all different sizes
At work: Two monitors side by side, and then one above them

How do you use the 3rd monitor above at the job?
I do video editing, so I just use the two below for my timeline and media management, and the one on top as a full-screen viewer
CN for those scanned PDFs. What am I gonna do, zoom in like some kind of animal?
i have chaotic neutral right now -- would it be insane to have the middle monitor be vertical then the side be horizontal? i usually use the horizontal for videos or sports but that makes more sense off to the side, then vertical is great for scrolling
I have chaotic neutral setup for quite a while. Like 15 years lol. The vertical started out as a monitor for the Photoshop palettes and this kind of stuff. Then it became the monitor for checking websites in 1024px and nowadays it's mostly terminal windows. I love to have a great scope of output in the viewport.
That's how I run my work setup. Ide on center monitor, documentation on the right, media and chat on the left.
What is neutral good called when the user keeps a large space between the monitors? That's pretty much all of my coworkers, and it drives me nuts.
That's called "my buttons are on the backside of the monitor"
Chaotic neutral on my work desk, lawful good on the gaming desk. Priorities.
I guess I'm lawful neutral good since I have two similarly sized screens plus the laptop screen. Just can't let screen real estate go to waste!
I love the Linus looking through the window background! I'm surprised no one else has mentioned it yet.
Chaotic good alignment upsets my OCD the most
I'm the opposite. I can't have two monitors of the same size, because then it's like they're both primaries in my brain. With the chaotic good arrangement, it's very clear which one runs the games and which one runs YouTube or what have you
Ex Lawful Evil, and If J had a secondary screen again I would to the same!
I guess I'm neutral evil? I call shenanigans.
True neutral. Only people with incapable OSs need multiple screens rather than having that one screen display what they want. 🙃
