I'm interested in the extent to which it is standard today to use two screens in professional life, but also at home. About four years ago I saw this for the first time with an IT man, then three years ago for the first time in my professional life and now I'm thrilled about it at home - use old 4: 3 screens for reasons of space, the second on an e-bazaar for Bought 12 euro, the first one from the basement, because until a few months ago I swore by notebooks.
Now I'm interested in what it generally looks like in working life today - who of you uses two screens, in professional life, or at home.
In my main job I only have one screen. As a part-time job, I have two screens because it is paperless and I don't want to print as much. I only work in the office. (Only applies to the office: I haven't turned on my computer privately for 1 year at home).
I also know from tax offices that people work regularly without paper (scans of receipts are sufficient) and therefore work with 2 screens.
On one screen, the IDE and / or database client and on the other the browser.
Professionally, I got the opportunity to work with 2 screens and was immediately impressed. Unfortunately, I'm currently not in the job, but I use two monitors at home (an MSI 24 "and a Dell 22") and I don't want to be without it anymore. Better to have a third one, but there's not enough space on the desk 🙈.
In my last few jobs, I've used three screens (and envied colleagues who had four screens). At home, one to four screens (including a tablet with spacedesk).
So there's no answer.
Two 4K monitors one 27 "and the other 28" at home. But completely private.
At work I didn't even have a PC until 4 weeks ago (there's a single monitor there), but I hardly work on the PC there either.
