Do I buy a new monitor or do I live with the burn-ins all the time? It’s getting annoying. When I edit images in GIMP, I have to double check if something is a pixel or a burn-in.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de It’s about time to get a new monitor. How old is it, btw.?
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org 4 years. 🫤
@movq@www.uninformativ.de What the heck, that’s terrible! :-( This planned obsolence right after warranty really sucks balls.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org To be fair, I did first notice this a while ago. But no monitor I ever had showed burn-ins like this (be it TFT or CRT), so I didn’t know that I should have sent it back. And then it got worse over time and now I see ghost images after 20-30 minutes. :(
This is just the universe telling me to reduce my screen time.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Holy cow! O_o
Reducing the overall screen time is desireable, that’s right. I should do the same.
