When I was a teen, I would watch stuff mostly on my phone and sometimes a low-end laptop that’s like 1366x768 resolution, cuz that’s all I had.

Now I have slightly better displays, I use headphones now, but still I’m probably not going to a movie theater any time soon, mostly because I’m not used to it, and also because the Post-Covid fear still lingers, not to mention, a crowd of too many people making me anxious, and various factors (mostly anxiety of other people, but also: yaRrr 🏴‍☠️). I mean, its just something I never experienced so its too much anxiety for me, and home viewing experience is more relaxing, even if it isn’t the IMAX experience.

(btw: Does anyone actually enjoy theaters? 🤔)

      Same here , grew up with 480i. Got my first high def plasma TV about 2009 or 2010 42 inch Panasonic 720p. Will not watch on smaller then my current TV. No point. When this TV dies I’ll cry. Then get an oled 55 inch.

      Currently have a 5.1 surround sound system. The front left speaker stands about 43 inches high and about 11 inches wide. Matching right speaker. Gives you an idea of what I’ve got for sound. Won’t go back to TV speakers.
