1:1 is also nice. https://www.eizo.com/products/flexscan/ev2730q/

That... thing is disturbing to look at, that being said the first thing I started looking for was the price, and it’s predictably expensive considering that it’s just a great aspect ratio for a 1920p 26” screen.

I’d pay about $500 for a square 2160p 30” screen. But then I’m a cheapskate and I have no way to justify even the $500 cost when I could get a couple 27” 2160p’s on sale for that.

8:9 is also a sweet spot, where you divide a 16:9 vertically to display two windows. No more awkward monitor rotations !
I'm using this monitor, and it has replaced a dual-screen FHD setup. The amount of vertical resolution is fantastic.
