That's cool! Any chance you can post a pic of your desk? I'd love to see this

You'll have to excuse the mess :) https://imgur.com/a/5uTm7VB

Also obviously I hid all the proprietary stuff.

Those last two on the right look like they're basically behind you. How do you use those?

They are about 45 degrees to the right of center. I turn my head or swivel my chair.

woah thats bonkers! What do you do with all that real estate?

Pretty much the standard tools that most people have open all the time I guess. I just want to see them all all the time without having to constantly switch windows or hide the thing I'm working on.

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++

Dude. If you get the third row PLEASE take another picture and share it.

Your set up is magnificent.

This is a beautiful desk setup. Do you prefer having the gaps in between?

No honestly I'd rather everything were flush, but that's the best I can do with the stand and monitors I have. The monitors aren't all the same make/model.

If anyone else enjoys pictures of these setups as much as I do, you may enjoy browsing this subreddit: https://reddpics.com/r/ultimatebattlestation

Neat website, unfortunate there is no sorting option or a way to port in your account's feed (I think?).
