It's fantastic, though I could stand to have another row above. It's nice rarely having to switch windows - everything I need and use is right in front of me.

I use i3 and now I have 10 monitors just in front of my eyes. I can easily switch windows, move an window to the front, side by side it's fantastic. Usually my applications have a default windows in which they open, switching to a specific application is muscle memory now. No mouse movement, no head movement. Just eyes and fingers coordination.
I usually have 8+ opened applications at the same time (editor, multiple terminals, mails, browser, chat) everything is in its right place.
Since my eyes can't look at two thing at the same time, no need to display everything. It's easier to press the shortcut to switch windows than to move my head.
Everything fits on my 3840x2400 13' laptop, it's like a Tardis, bigger on the inside.
Also obviously I hid all the proprietary stuff.
Music, messenger, Discord, Slack, 2 or 3 instances of my IDE, source control UI, a terminal or three, documentation for the thing I'm working on, notepad++
Your set up is magnificent.
What window manager do you use? I'm Xmonad.
That's an interesting configuration! Also my first encounter with someone else who understands the value of screen space.
Do you also like to keep all your things out in the open rather than tucked away inside cupboards and drawers?
* 27” LCD x 4
* 1 iPad (maybe this is cheating a little)
* 1 Laptop
I’ve disabled the laptop though. The LCDs are in a 2x2 array all landscape. I use the iPad mostly for meetings.
