Very much this.
It's nice for code and movies, everything else becomes a chore if you actually wanna use all of it.
I'm getting 2 16:9 monitors instead.
Ultrawide Monitors

More like ultrashort

Unlikely, because of the actual resolution. Most are 21:9 with a 1080p or 1440p vertical resolution, so it would need minimum two cuts. A 4k panel cut in half horizontally would be 32:9, so the resolution would be 3840x1080, there's only one 49" Samsung monitor like that but it's of a much older type of VA they only make for monitors. On the other hand their TVs, even the non-QLED ones, all use the same type of VA, and as the models go up they add QLED filters, FALD, and ultra-wide angle surface and shit on top. It's a completely different tech stack from monitors so their ultrawides can't be cut down TVs.
Any VA 21:9 ultrawide is really unlikely to be a larger panel just because of how odd 21:9 is and there aren't a lot of large VA panels to cut it down from.
It's probably the same for IPS. I'm pretty sure if you added pieces to a 21:9 monitor to get 4K it would end up at some weird size like 35" or 40" in a lot of cases which afaik aren't common sizes anywhere

2-3 16:9 monitors side by side is better desuš

Why are you mentioning cutting in half though? His point was about cutting top or bottom. Failed 1440p panel becomes 21:9 1080p, failed 4k becomes 21:9 1440p.

you are not supposed to trow away your old 16:9. if it just doesn't work on 21:9 I launch on my 16:9.

Got two of these 38" LGs....got used to them but I literally can't see the corners of these monitors.
My brain got used to it, but I'm thinking of selling them and going to a dual 5k/4k 27"

I enjoy mine especially for films in native aspect ratio
Owen Harris
I'd rather have 16:10.

You're better off getting a projector and watching on your wall. Watching a movie on a computer is a meme.
Also what mount is that?
