What 8k screen are you using? Do you recommend it?
1 comments

It's an LG 65QNED99UPA. There are a few caveats: using a 65" display up close imposes some requirements on your window manager (you want to treat the sides more like you'd treat a secondary monitor in a multimonitor setup, rather than have windows go all the way edge to edge); and you need to make sure that every GPU, KVM, and cable can handle 8k, in an ecosystem where most don't. If you can handle those two things, it's great.
