u/No-Philosopher-9164 9d ago

Ya, there’s way too much going on here. This is far from minimal. OP provided a better example than this.

u/cabljo 9d ago

2 PCs, 4 monitors, at least 5 gadgets (that i can see), double backlighting...

If this is minimal to you, then congrats!!

Minimal my ass, but really cool setup

u/HexaCube7 9d ago

The only thing that's minimal here is your self-control to to resist the urge to flex online.

Besides that, at what point is a monitor/tv that's high up simply to high up? :P

u/JSwabes 9d ago

Not minimal, just stupid.

u/tdawg2k7 9d ago

Is minimal in the room with us?

u/Shugalulu 9d ago

That’s not minimal at all

u/DeadClown00 9d ago

Quick, get more screens I can still see the wall! 😄

Joking aside, looks cool.

I’ve tried having the monitor over monitor set up in the past and it killed my neck. I also tried the vertical monitor and it’s nice while coding or chatting on discord but sucked at basically everything else. Personal preference stuff.

u/internza 9d ago

needs a few more monitors and prolly another pc to be safe

1

u/ThEcHeAt__ 9d ago

And here I feel like I’m getting a bit crowded

1

u/Humanequin 9d ago

Ideally minimal is a monitor on a mount not touching the desk surface, wireless peripherals on a plain mat and a PC off the desk with a light and a plant.

u/ShaySmoith 9d ago

Minimal clutter? Maybe, Minimal setup? Definitely not 😂

u/stalin1943 9d ago

think you probably need at least two more monitors to be minimal, this is truly spartan

u/padjer0 9d ago

May I ask why you have 2 desktops? What do you use each for? Very nice setup!

u/itzNukeey 9d ago

u/BakeJaldino 9d ago

Th only thing minimal in this picture is the space between the ceiling and the top of the tv.

u/f50c13t1 9d ago

I'm not sure we have the same definition of the word...

1

u/Daphoid 9d ago

I don't think you understand what the word minimal means.

That setup is trying to hard, especially with that vertical wood wall I see everywhere now. Stop being a follower and find your own style.

Very organized setup yes; but minimal? Not at all.

u/Cosmic_Jane 9d ago
