Wow, thank you for this video! I changed the positioning right away!
Glad it helped!
Thanks so much 🙏
I love the way you broke up the video into topics!
Thanks! Glad you like it
It seems to me that setting up for your 30 degrees of horizontal to cover only half of each screen would be exactly what you want to avoid. Did I miss something?
I agree i can only have my monitor straight infront of me and the other to right side ..but turning my head and rapid eye movement is causing vertigo
Very good content! Congratulations for the channel!
In your opinion, not considering personal preference but only ergonomics, what is the best size for a dual monitor setup focused on work?
2 x 24 in? 2 x 27 in? 1x24 in+1x27 in?
Thanks a lot
Hello OT Focus! I appreciate your content. Can you do a video on Fieldwork 2 advice and tips?
Anything in particular that would help?
@@otfocus your personal experience with Fieldwork 2 such as the settings you were placed in, interaction with your CIs, advice you’d give to students going into fieldwork, how you were able to handle your own caseload, expectations from your CIs, challenges of fieldwork, and how we can prepare for fieldwork. Thanks!
great video very helpful
Glad you think so!
Single monitor is definitely the best option to avoid neck pain. Great video!
Totally agree! Thanks!
What's the best set up for using a MBP 16 as the main screen for zooms plus dual screens, to avoid the MBP 16 from blocking out the external monitors and avoiding neck strain). Btw you know you and MKBHD have the same voice??!
Get a stand for your MBP and make sure the top bar is at eye level. It would be better to have the laptop in clamshell mode.
I have a dominant monitor, however, I use the second one every minute. I need them bothmost of the time so I went for a centered two screen even though ergonomically is not the best...
I think that’s fine. If you use it every minute you should have the equally positioned to reduce neck motion.
I use 2 monitors for pleasure (retired) one (L) for watching (listening) to docos, videos, movies and the other (R)for social stuff and playng games like mahjong etc They are angled inward, so sit slightly toward the left hand one with keyboard in front of it.
Can you talk about keyboard set up. I have two awful Phillips monitors given my employer, will be my third week working remote and I feel awful.. I’m working for a clinical call center. Always my third chair and yesterday got an adjustable standing desk but got a tall chair which is sliding a lot on my hardwood floor which is scary… my arms are 90 degree angle but I think my monitors are low! 😭
Check out my other ergonomic videos on desk setup. Keep your legs and elbows at 90 degrees with you feet resting flat on the floor. Wrists should be straight and eye at top bar of monitor.
thanks
Welcome
what about samsung 49 inch super ultrawide?
The bigger the screen the more neck strain unless you’re sitting further away. So sit far away or get a smaller monitor.
what about 57 inch super ultrawide?
Yeah, my 57 is killing my neck. I think it’s more of an up down issue, not a looking sideways.
what if i have a 27 inch with a 21.5 inch monitor? :D
Just keep them the same height at eye level.
We are in a time where people just don’t want to hear a bunch of talking. 😢 Times are changing. Unless it’s a PODCAST. Omgosh
Thanks for the feedback. Working on it!
