Why Apple needs to get sued for screen image retention

[Ethosik]

This is how being an Apple customer goes, you spend a ton of money on hardware that has an issue that can't/won't be fixed. The solution? Spend more big bucks on yet ANOTHER Apple product. We keep rewarding them for their shady/shoddy manufacturing.

And why do we do that? Because we want/need to continue using their software, either because we already invested the $$$ on it, or because there are really no alternatives on windowsland. That's why we accept what is in fact an abusive relationship.

The Mac Mini does look like the least painful solution, but beware: unless you have a 4k monitor and are willing to run it at 200% scaling, the image will look like garbage. Why? Because Apple doesn't like to play nice with anything third-party.

I actually have a 2560x1440 second monitor connected to my iMac and it looks perfectly fine to me. Also, a third 4K display where it looks like 1440p is connected.

I have a 25" 1440p Dell display that I can only use with windows because on Mac fonts in the native resolution are too small for me and anything scaled looks like ugly butt, fonts are atrociously blurred and there's no way out of it. Font rendering on macs are bad even at native resolution on mostly anything that is not running on 2x "retina" scaling. Maybe the displays you have have good mac support, but generally speaking one ought to pick them very carefully.

Well I do pay $600+ for my monitors. But I also use DisplayPort to USB-C and not HDMI. Is it an HDMI issue?

All I said was over DisplayPort. I'm aware of the HDMI issue. That's something else. Over HDMI I can't even get it to display RGB properly. It treats the monitor as a TV screen and locks it into a different color scheme
