I just realised the whole last week, I've been using a plank of wood for my desk. I sit outside with a plank of wood on my lap, macbook air on top

- Lenovo G505s Laptop (7 Years Old) - Laptop table (its just 1 Foot tall, i sit down on the floor with wall to rest back) - Cheap Logitech Wired Mouse - Dell Wired Headphones with external Mic - Boat Wired Earphones (i use wired bcoz i am scared of bluetooth earphones getting disconnected during calls and loud music) - Water Bottle - Scribble Book with Pen & Pencil (i use both)

I've been working on improving my workspace for some time now and I'm pretty happy with my current set-up: - Macbook Pro - Logitech G915 (because who doesn't love a bit of RGB on their desk + it switches really quickly between my PC and Mac) - Logitech MX Master 3 - LG curved display - Razer Kiyo (Not well-optimised for Mac, but the ring light helps a lot!)

- Macbook Pro - Airpods - Spotify - Green tea - LabiOffice :)

I'm more interested in the furniture, layout, and ambience of WFH spaces. Do you cover this in your newsletter?

I've been micro-optimizing my setup for about a decade. Most of my work is on my custom desktop PC. It's a couple years old now, but I overspent on RAM and NVMe drives so it can handle anything work related. Each project has it's own VM in VMWare Workstation, because I don't want 8 different databases running in the background all the time. This also allows me to test fault tolerant configurations like multi-master DB replication. My monitor is a 32" Dell ultra wide w/ 2K level resolution. I found this to be the most readable. I may venture into the 5K displays and do 2x scaling down the road. DAS mechanical keyboard. Logitech MX master mouse. Sennheiser HD 650 headphones with relatively cheap Fiio DAC. For those video calls, I've got the standard Logitech 920 webcam and Jabra Evolve 65 headset which I've been really happy with.

My workspace changes during the week as I WFH (could be in my kitchen or in my garden) and from the office. My top essentials are my MacBook Pro, headphones, phone, tea mug, hand sanitizer and tissues.

Ryan, can't believe I didn't comment on this earlier. Congrats for launching on PH! I'll always be a big fan of your work. Keep it up!

When from MAC to PC this year its been really good from a visual standpoint. Nikon. Standing desk. Two monitors. Camera mount for video calls and recordings and mic on arm off amazon.

Acer Laptop, i5 7th gen processor , a mouse , one plus ear budz and Redmi Note 8 pro Phone

Can I piggy back off of your question and ask who has a standing desk at home and uses it? My guess is that most people get one and then rarely use it. Am I wrong?

I don't have really workspace. I like to change locations in my flat. But with me are often Mac, wireless mouse logitech and cup of water 😁

It's quite minimalist on my side! - Wireless Logitech mouse + keyboard - Laptop stand - MacBook Air + charger + Airpods - A notebook + pen - A bottle of water - A cup of coffee (usually empty after 8.30 am) 😆

Laptop, Books,
