Now that I work from home and can ssh into my work laptop, all my screens are the same screens. I don’t know if this is good or bad, but my boss is happy with my work and I’m happy I get to use a window manger that doesn’t suck. 🤷
In theory I could do my job from a good screen, because everything is either in a browser or a remote server somewhere. Anything would run better than the POS surface laptop they issued, and I’d surely be more productive and efficient if I purpose-built a workstation with open-source, tailored to what I do.

It will never happen at my company though.
