Three monitors here. Primary and secondary pretty much exactly like you. Tertiary is a cheap portable one, 15", 1080p, that I've mounted above the secondary slightly angled downward and on which I have my communication apps pinned, as well as a full screen

.Oh, neat! Yeah, I think I've seriously talked myself into getting a small third monitor. Using it for communication apps is a good idea, and I can definitely see having that when I'm just relaxing, or if I'm collaborating. Thanks for your response!
I've wanted the overhead comms display off and on for a while now. Two screens for input/output work, then the overhead screen for discord/hangouts/teams/email status. I don't need the overhead one all the time, but some days it would be insanely useful when things are buzzing in the group.
Haha, ditto. I've got the 34inch 4:3 for tasks like cad and image stuff, then next to it the 34inch ultramodern which I use for spreadsheets or multi-pane stuff, then my extra monitor up that lives up at a weird angle is my at-a-glance home for slack, btop, nvtop and any running scripts I want to keep an eye on.
