Comment on Baby sized bolete of some sort

A YWB display is capable of color on the blue-yellow axis and has double the light throughput of RGB. What you’re showing is a passive STN display, I’m after an active matrix (TFT or IPS). To save on driver development, there will still be subpixels, just without color.
As for the OLED, I mean this pattern:

Maybe this one is not Samsung’s patent but either way, they sought to ban their patented pixel patterns’ import to the US, effectively banning all but large-volume shipments of OLEDs (because the customs can’t check for pixel patterns whenever a US repair shop orders a spare).

Some of these terms I am not yet familiar with, so I will need to do some reading. I’ll save this comment and come back during the week. It seems like you are very knowledgeable about display technologies! Very cool

In short: STN is almost always monochrome and in a calculator or Game Boy: just glass, electrodes and liquid crystal. It’s cheap and customizable but it doesn’t scale to high resolutions well and the contrast is poor. TFT is almost always color and uses a thin film transistor on each subpixel to hold its state between updates, simplifying driving while maintaining contrast at high resolutions.
