What is something you never understood the hype for?

Original question by @[email protected]
I struggle to understand hype for most things nowadays.
It's weird I just don't feel it now.
I went to see a band I should have went to see 20 years ago. I can't say I felt much hype beforehand. The hype only started when the intro played and the band started walking out.
Within the first couple of songs I was a mess with happy tears, but everything leading up to it? I was just chill, totally unphased.
I think I'm broken

Having multiple monitors. My boss now has three. One is dedicated to displaying their calendar the whole day.

I didn't get it either until one class in high school (graphic design) had second monitors installed for all work stations halfway through the year. It's super useful being able to have reading material open on a vertical monitor! Only reason I don't have one still is because of very limited space (can't even fit a normal PC).
I did start using my TV as a second monitor recently though for putting Zoom meetings on it. I got tired of having to alt tab back to it every once in a while when doing stuff. TV sits behind my laptop so only like half the screen is visible but it's good enough!

Your environment would give a Victorian child a seizure.

I guess I'm just old but I don't follow most. Even with dogpiling PirateSoftware. Yes, he's wrong and probably lied. I just don't get the hype around it. I'm happy that the hype led to Stop Killing Games getting enough traction though, that was nice.

When doing work that requires multiple apps to be open or file explorers, web pages, and reference stuff then having a second is very convenient a lot of the time. Yeah, I could stretch it out on one giant monitor if it was an option, but two just makes it easy to keep track of what is where by having physical breaks.
At home it is great for having discord or other thing off to the side for communication or reference while playing games full screen on one monitor instead of needing to alt tab or use windowed mode smaller than full screen. If I did a more immersive driving/flying set up I would have three for the wrap around effect and a fourth for the extra stuff.
Both situations are for convenience.
I do know someone at work that has three but they handle the infrastructure and they often have multiple apps and browsers open for all the things that interact when troubleshooting and having it large and readable makes it easier to see what is changing and what isn't changing at the same time.

Same LMAO they're neat but I've always been so meh about them. And there's not even like new ones, it's always the same versions over and over again

Finally got to play Nightreign, and that's at the front of my mind as an answer to this question. Love Elden Ring; but after a few expeditions in Nightreign, I'm never touching it again.

This was not a response I expected, I thought the only people who didn't like multiple monitors were ones who never tried it lol
My peak was like 8 monitors, I'm at 6 now, but I can never go back to a single one long term. Whenever I do it temporarily for whatever reason it's agonizing

I don't care who the government sends, I will not waste my time with radio talk shows rebranded as podcasts.
I am guilty of chucking Second Wind and Friends Per Second on the TV when there's nothing good on since they talk about good topics and bother with presentation for a viewing audience, though.

I will also never understand the fascination with streaming. Just play the game, nerd.

I've been watching countless PirateSoftware drama videos since it's the clown that keeps on giving. I never bothered with drama channels on YouTube, so I never realized how much of an industry these people made out of it now that I keep getting recommend them. It's sickening.

Dude either needs to streamline to two monitors, or pick up iRacing.
Only reason I'd have 3 monitors is for racing sims, but even then I usually use VR anyway.
Two is fine for most.
Three monitors is incredibly handy sometimes.
I have two, but one is in pirtrait mode. I use it when I need to read through a document but also can have two windows one above other to simulate a second monitor and use it like that at work fairly regularly.

they're great if you do more than one thing at a time or need many programs open at the same time. anyone who regularly 'alt-tabs' to find or switch to a different window that they cannot currently see could benefit from another screen.
one wide or ultra wide display may not work as well, as some programs simply aren't made with that aspect ratio in mind. we have one program here that insists upon being in a maximized window--always. a lot of wasted space, even on a 16:9. that user has two 5:4 instead and loves that setup.

Itâs taken me awhile to figure out, but I feel like the vast majority of people dismiss new things if they arenât:
- Very clearly presented in exactly applicable use-cases for the person, including easy to understand benefit explanations. 2. They try it themselves in a way that the benefits are immediately apparent and understandable.

Any more displays than one and its gonna fry my brain. I can only keep attention to one at a time.
