Its gonna look nerdy as shit but Id love the steam frame for a portable dev station
Bruh you're coding in public just embrace the nerdiness at that point hehe
I'm holding off on monitor upgrades in the hopes that the steam frame could be used as a super monitor.
I used my quest like this for work for a while when my monitor was broken. I couldn’t recommend it less. Supremely uncomfortable, and I’ve spent way too much money improving the ergonomics on that piece of spyware garbage.
Setting ergonomics aside, how was the use ability? Text reading, window positioning etc. Worthwhile as a concept with current hardware if the ergo issues could be solved?
Nope, it’s quite blurry. Good for watching video but not for reading.
