I've been using a 1920x1200 monitor at home for about 8 years now, and it's starting to get a bit scratched. Since I'm working mostly from home now I decided to invest in a 28" 4k monitor (3840x2160) and it's a revelation. I finally have a monitor where the pixels are too small for me to see, even with my new glasses. I can get seven XTerms side-by-side and I admit that the default font is too small. Palemoon seems to have adapted automatically to the new resolution. Rendered fonts look properly smooth! It's amazing. LibreOffice's icons don't look to big and clumsy any more.
