Root772765yTwo horizontals.
Both 24" 165hz 1440p.
(Girlfriend's dad is an avid gamer and hardware buff)
I want a vertical 4k for code, but I'll need some vesa mounting because my desk is tiny. -
1 horiz, 1 vert, (work-provided higher-end 1080p) and using mbp 15" built-in display because it's too good to waste.
Mbp display gets intellij
Vert gets fullscreen tmux'ed iterm
Horiz gets browser/Cal/mail/slack/misc and second intellij project if needed. -
PaperBag8525yI got a used screen from my grandmother's neighbor for free and connected it to my laptop.
Best setup imaginable. -
I used to have 2 1080p monitors, one horizontal and one vertical for code, reading documentation, terminal, etc. I upgraded to 2 4k monitors and just left them both horizontal.

@alexbrooklyn For a while I had a horizontal one bolted to the side of a shelf. Eventually it broke the shelf, fell down and crushed another monitor under it. But it worked for almost a year.

Do you have multiple screens? If yes, in what orientation?
I'm personally using 2. 1 horizontal and 1 vertical.
The vertical one is nice for long documentation and the horizontal one is mainly used for gaming.
