+1 for team separate monitors for webdev. Although I am on macOS, I use 2x 24" (with thin bezels put next to each other) plus laptop screen. The handling of the OS "window manager" is just smoother for separate screens as opposed to ultra wide: separate workspaces per screen, shortcuts (via BTT) to move windows to a specific screen and maximize etc.

Too bad apple decided that using two external monitors is a "pro" feature and requires at least an "Pro" M1/M2/M3 processor. Even though my 2x 24" run at 1080p and I have been using them every since with my original MacbookPro from 2014 without issues...



I've used mbpro ~2018 before and must say that wtf was going on when apple decided that multiple monitors is pro feature... I have windows pc and have been using 4 monitors with it for years, and with windows laptop 3 is smooth.. Osx still has really weird functionalities when it comes to multi-monitor setup. Like it was not meant to be used more than 1 monitor


Use the free square app and you can set up key combos for all your window management.


with my existing better touch tool setup? How does square replace the multiple workspaces in Mission Control? Etc.

Plus, what is the URL for that app? "square app macos" google returns vastly different/unrelated results.
