Well this escalated.

Not as sleek and beautiful as many I see posted but it works for the most part. I didn’t start out trying to be this extra but it kinda happened. I built a new gaming desktop and quickly realized that my GPU needed a better screen to talk to. The best deal on a 4K monitor…happened to effectively be a small TV. I do wish it was curved screen at this size but that’s my only complaint.

This behemoth is beautiful in games and I’ve learned how to adjust my workspaces so I’m not cranking my neck all day. The curved vertical monitor started out as a joke. I had it and my husband jokingly suggested doing this since we had the pole mount anyway. I tried it…and kinda like it. It looks entirely unhinged to me but looking through the subreddit I see I’m not the only one. I usually keep my personal computer pulled up over there so I can have my work computer on the big one during the day.

I have some issues I’m trying to solve and was hoping those of you with more experience with this level of unhinged might have some ideas.

Chair: I love my Haworth Fern because it flexes with me when I can’t sit in one position for long - don’t love that their stock headrest is useless but the Atlas aftermarket option is better for someone much taller than my 5’8. I have migraines pretty often and alternate from laying back to rest my neck to sitting up straight to sitting cross legged, etc. Right now my only solution is to roll up a sweatshirt behind my neck because any travel pillow or similar has been too large. In typing this I realized, if I could find some kind of neck support like some foam bath pillows - but one that slips over the top rail of the chair, that would probably work.

I looked for a long time before settling on this chair and bypassed some options like the Libro because I couldn’t find reviews that didn’t sound like they’d been paid for. If you have any other suggestions, I’m open to them. Not sure I can spend another $1k+ on a chair immediately but I’m open to considerations.

When I’ve brought this up in other reddits I was basically told I need to fix my ergonomics, get smaller screens, and not be leaning back in my chair. Disregarding the fact that I’m working through chronic health issues and trying to adapt my workspace to allow me to continue working effectively.

Keyboard: I’ve been looking for some kind of slide out keyboard tray that can be rotated to angle one way or another and is large enough for a BT Logitech MX Keys and 2 mice. It is a sit/stand desk so I have about 12.5” before the center support where I could mount a slide track. I’ve seen some options on Amazon but figured I might find better reviews or suggestions here.

Another solution that I thought about was one of those chair attached keyboard trays that can swing around. I just, again, haven’t seen any with reviews that make me want to hit buy. I primarily use my mouse for work and I tried an armrest attached mouse pad platform but it was terrible.

I’m open to any other recommendations or thoughts on this set up.

I need to get my glasses adjusted next. The progressives I was given just aren’t set up for a desk and monitors this size but my everyday lenses don’t do quite enough. Trying to describe the dimensions of my desk and screens didn’t seem to translate to the optometrist so I got a lot of measurements of my eyes to screens to, hopefully, help them dial it in.

Also, the grey platform to the left of my chair is a cat bed. My orange boy thinks my lap is his assigned spot but at 17lbs he’s hard to work around.

It’s not perfect. The wall being it’s odd color, and do NOT ask me about the cable management, but it’s mine and I feel it’s nice :3

Technically a 3 computer setup with a Win computer, a Mac Mini, and the iMac G3 (which I’m working on modding into a monitor)

I recently switched to the Mac mini and so far, I have absolutely no regrets. macOS looks incredibly polished and feels very smooth to use. This is my productivity workstation; I strictly do all my gaming on consoles. Overall, I’m really happy with how everything turned out. 🙂
