i just flipped my monitor sideways for something, why is this

I had my LCD like that for a few months but put it back recently because my other monitor is 4:3 and games fucking hate that nowadays. Portrait is great for most things, but I will say that some websites don't play well with it for some reason.

>A lot of information is easier to digest in vertical format
Like your gaymes?

what did he mean by this?
in a 3d world horizontal field of view is way more important
ANY written information is better displayed vertically, as long as you have enough horizontal space to break sentences up enough

Eyes are accustomed to a 4:3 focus point.
Going vertical, even more further from that, is just making it even worse.
We look way more to the left/right then up/down.

You know, our eyes are socketed on a horizontal level, not vertical.
For a few niche applications like text documents or terminal use, there's really no reason for a vertical display.

Except phones, that's because their size and ease of use with one hand.

I have a large 4k, I basically have space to go UW and 27" portrait without having to fuck around with the hardware

Because of the polarizing filters. And if you want a setup like in your pic, it would just be better to get 40" 4K TV so you dont havee the faggy black bars.
