What resolution are you running on your screen? Default, more space, less space?

The default always feels nice at first but it leaves a lot of useful screen real estate available that could be more efficiently used. I've always run more space but have been trying out the default. Not sure I can stick with it.

Curious how many change from default in either direction.
 
Hooked on that crispy 2x scaling

It looks really crisp even at the higher res, but there is definitely "something else" going on at the default res. I always switched within seconds of a new install, but I'm on day 3 of it right now, and while I hate how little screen real estate I have, it's drawing me in 🤣
 
I tend to stick to the default resolution. I also set up my Macs to autohide the Dock and resize apps to fill the entire desktop area (not fullscreen mode), which helps with the usable screen real estate.
