TVs are fantastic monitors.

It sounds reasonable to not want to pay for basically a small computer inside the TV.

But in practice, its not that expensive of a component. And TV volumes are so high that they’re bigger and cheaper and higher quality than an equivalently priced monitor, anyway.

Hence I’m fine with what I have, but I’m never buying a “monitor” again. It just makes no sense when I can get a 40" TV with 120hz VRR instead, that happens to work fantastically as a streaming box too.
