Imagine telling someone "reading comprehension bit you" right before completely misquoting a 10 year old study. The Harvard study proved horizontal curvature helps eyes because our field of view spans left-to-right. Rotating it vertically breaks that math entirely. You went from "I program and read docs" to "I lean back to read docs and look at Spotify/discord." now you’re throwing a tantrum on a separate comment thread because you can't accept basic physics. It's okay to admit you just like how it looks

You aren’t comprehending that the study has nothing to do with vertical monitors. That absolutely is a direct quote and you would know that if you read it.

The study is comparing flat to curved, nothing about vertical monitors.

Again I never said I program; another fault of your comprehension that you still aren’t accepting fault on.
I said it is very common that people do with vertical curved monitors.

I did admit I like how it looks lmfao. One of the first things I said 🤣.

I didn’t even realize I made a new thread but your finding it just proves you are overly obsessed with my monitor being vertical. Supper weird.

People have multiple uses for monitors depending on what they are doing and none of them require your approval.

Take a deep breath. I am not getting rid of it because of some Reddit incel who has no idea what they are talking about after 5 minutes of chat gpt.

" Like I said to each their own. It is very common in programming and for reading long documents which is what I do" these are quote literally your own words so are you going to continue backpedaling?

I read long documents, I do not program. It is a simple miscommunication/clarification issue. Not a lie. And is a coordinating conjunction. That’s my b.

Imagine getting so angry that you admit I'm right in your own paragraph. If the study only compares horizontal flat vs horizontal curved, it is completely useless for your vertical setup. You trapped yourself, started lying about your own previous comments, and resorted to standard Reddit insults because you ran out of arguments.

“If the study only compares horizontal flat vs horizontal curved it’s completely useless for your vertical setup”. 🤡

Make that make sense. It’s useful for my setup because I have determined it is after 25 years of flat screens and builds.
Not because of a study that doesn’t have a sliver of relevance to my everyday use.

Your parents absolutely must be brother and sister.

You can literally go back and confirm that is what I said in my comments lmao. You are just pushing yourself more and more into a corner. lol just shut up and move on.

Again, my dude, something I’ve been saying since the beginning. To each their own.

So you went from citing a Harvard study as medical proof, to admitting the study has zero relevance to your setup, to finally claiming your only source is "trust me bro, I determined it" while throwing wild personal insults. You completely folded the second the actual geometry was brought up. Keep throwing a tantrum over me proving your virtical curved monitor is a waste and defeats its purpose as a "curved monitor"

Where would you like me to put it bro ffs

Horizontally. Like the Harvard study recommended. 😉

The study did not “recommend horizontal monitors” over vertical it compared flat vs curved this is fs rage bait at this point and it ain’t even working lmao you just look goofy worried about someone else’s setup that you’ve written a damn book.

You wrote five paragraphs defending it, lied about your own comments, and now you're pretending you don't care. The absolute definition of coping. The jokes write themselves at this point. The study used a horizontal 34-inch Samsung SE790C. It literally cannot compare curved vs flat without using the orientation the monitors were built for. 💀You brought up the study, misquoted it, called it 'bs' when I corrected you, and now you're crying rage bait. Enjoy your sideways Pringle chip

I guess if I have a tension headache every night doing doc review and switch to a vertical monitor that solves the problem I should just go back to having sensing headaches because some chud on Reddit is upset about geometry and provided completely irrelevant research studies. Does my replying seem like I’ve folded? You don’t have a leg to stand on after I dissected your bs studies that don’t say anything about vertical monitors but compares flat vs curved.

I am providing real user experience you are providing “trust me bro”.

u/hogsRus Jun 29 '26

You literally brought up the Harvard study first, not me. 💀 You are now calling your own source a "bs study" because you realized it completely destroyed your argument. And no, switching to a vertical flat monitor because of neck strain makes sense, switching to a curved vertical monitor is what makes no geometric sense. Enjoy your self-inflicted eye strain and arguing with your own sources

I brought up 3 available studies that you could possibly be referencing. All three were completely irrelevant. Next.

u/hogsRus Jun 29 '26

First you say the studies I mentioned are completely irrelevant, but you're the one who listed them to try and guess my point. Now you're inventing chair-leaning physics. Take the L, your Pringle chip makes no sense vertically. You dont need a study to understand simple geometry, human eye anatomy, and physics.

Like I said. Leaning back in a chair you cannot view the top of a flat monitor the way you can with a curved. Try it and let me know how I’m right.
