Yeah it's not the best song in the world but it's catchy and kinda fun. I can definitely see why some people would say it's annoying but there's a reason it went viral.
I get where they're coming from. Moderating a huge online presence where people can make posts about things is difficult and costly. But..... It's their platform and they're in charge of it. So........ It kinda sounds like they have to.
All I can say is that when I tried ultra wide, I was unimpressed. It's good for somethings but it felt more awkward working on it than multiple displays.
It's absolutely a preference thing, but if you can just get a bigger screen instead of an ultra wide, that would be my pick. I ended up going multi screen with my work set up.
Generally the return polices are pretty good so you can try something and return it if it doesn't meet your expectations. I returned 3 ultrawides before I decided it just wasn't what I wanted.
Well it at least is an obstacle. Broke hackers won't get it or will have to work harder to get around it.
