Chaotic good here. They have different DPI too so you're never quite sure where your mouse is going to end up.

OK, calm down Satan....
I spend hours aligning their bottoms and virtual position so now my three screens transfer the mouse exactly in their vertical middle.
I also use a tiling WM with tons of workspaces and if I switch workspaces my mouse gets reseted into the middle of the workspace anyway.
I switched to Wayland and it makes a huge difference. Pulling a window over to my higher dpi monitor makes it go ... clearer. It looks just like how you'd want it to look.
I like it so much I refuse to accept my status as chaotic good and want an exception for chaotic good wayland users with correct dpi compensation to be categorized as chaotic neutrals and lawfuls
You can use a software called LittleBigMouse to make this better. It's really nice in my experience with 2 1080p screens and one 4k. All roughly the same size
where does diagonal fall?
What about this?
Imagine having to manually adjust your tiny. NTSC, man. Literally shaking in my SMH.

Chaotic evil here. No regrets.

So jealous of the foot heater.
"Chaotic Good"
aka "I got this monitor for free from someone else"
I feel attacked, the pc came with a 4:3 monitor for you information... the bigger one was a the gift
Tbf, I say that as someone that lived the Chaotic Good monitor life for like, a decade with a monitor my family was throwing away.
I bought both of mine. For next to nothing from a charity shop. Also they're TVs.
Am I the only chaotic neutral here? I code on the right and do everything else on the left.
I'm sort of that. I've got two landscape and one portrait monitor, the portrait one is good for browsing websites like this one where there's a lot of vertical text. I actually find myself preferring the landscape ones for coding since my IDE has a lot of stuff in sidebars and also some of the lines of text are very long.
Fellow chaotic neutral here, basically same here. code on vertical screen + some articles for easier reading and everything else on the main screen
what about having a tv across the room as a second monitor?
Ummmm... how about 2 vertical monitors above each other?
That's how I got this long ass screenshot, for example:
I don't know how else to do that, so I fixed it with hardware ʘ‿ʘ
But otherwise, true neutral.
Tilted 22 degree to maximize the potential line length that can be displayed.

What about using Android Tab or Phones as second monitor?
So Chaotic Evil just gets way more screen real estate than everybody else?
What about those who eschew multi monitor setups in favour of an ultrawide?
basically neutral good without bezels
It's not how I would want to be all the time, but Chaotic Neutral is really great for reviewing documents in a PDF.
At home: Chaotic good but with three monitors that are all different sizes
At work: Two monitors side by side, and then one above them
Not a programmer though, I make videos
I'm Chaotic Neutral (although my vertical monitor is on the left). It was an experiment that stuck because I like being able to read more lines of code at once.
Love my lawful evil setup, works great!
- 50% of web developers: Chaotic Neutral
- Salespeople: Lawful Neutral
- Programmers (and the other 50% of web developers): Unaligned, we know how to use shortcuts.
I am chaotic good at home with a 4K and a laptop screen
But at work it’s all 1080 monitors (unfortunately) so I have 3 and I a mix of chaotic neutral and lawful evil 😂 2 portraits then a landscape
I'm pretty much chaotic evil, with a laptop.
One thing I will say: anyone who has a single window spanned across multiple monitors needs battering. "Oh, yah, I fookin' love 'aving un two-centimeter black bar in middul of me Word doccumant". Unhinged sociopaths, all of them.
Chaotic neutral should be a solo laptop screen.
My setup isn't featured, but it's basically neutral good with the laptop below it in the middle.
I think they're all evil with those skulls on the screen.
Lawful neutral, though my laptop is up on a stand to bring it to the height of the monitor, so maybe chaotic good?
I have four screens from four different manufacturers, with three different sizes, three different resolutions, two different aspect ratios and two different refresh rates.
Two of these are resurrected from the dead of which one has a high voltage cold cathode driver externally plastered to it's back (because the internal failed and there was no space inside) and the other one shining from every pore because I "replaced" one cold cathode tube by plastering the "replacement" tube somewhere in the housing of the monitor to fool the driver into thinking all tubes are fine (one was defect, the driver doesn't work without every tube connected and putting the replacement in the place where it should belong is too much work).
I am basically the evil necromancer of chaotic evil.

I can provide pictures later today if someone's interested.
Edit: Here are the pictures
Definitely Interested
I hope an Imgur link is fine. If not please tell me which (multi) image hoster is fine here on lemmy. Here are a few pictures I took of my setup and the necromanced parts
I'm a combination of neutral good and lawful neutral. 2 identical monitors + laptop.
Lawful good at home.
Laptop and two horizontal monitors at work. Is that lawful neutral good or neutral good lawful?
Personally, I think it's probably neutral awful - one is HDMI and the other is VGA.
