Beyond the advice of monitors and such, make sure your camera is set up above your monitor, NOT below. It just looks better, the view from below makes it seems like you are in laptop.

Herman Miller chair on deckkkkk

Hooked my laptop to a monitor for an extra screen.

Bout it, no fancy cameras, lighting or speakers for me 🤷‍♂️

Herman Miller is what’s really real. IYKYK…

Laptop screen for email and chat + 24inch Asus monitor for decks + 40 inch Visio TV for excel, old school aux-cord iPhone headphones plugged into laptop for calls (no setup needed, no batteries, solid microphone quality), $50 Logitech webcam on top of laptop.

Just had to get a $5 HDMI to USB C dongle because my laptop only has 1 HDMI port, but other than that I just plug both in and hit extend and it works without a hitch

I invested in a height-adjustable standing desk and it is the absolute best thing ever! highly recommend one!

In an attempt to be healthier, I built a permanent standing desk. Now, once every couple hours my Apple Watch reminds me “it’s time to stand up” and I feel superior to all those chair sitters out there.

Just landed a full time gig, looking to get some furniture so I’m not working on my parents’ kitchen table during this remote period. Any recommendations for desks and chairs? I’m hoping to find something that’s easy to assemble and break down for when I need to move, and something that won’t cost an arm and a leg.

I know everyone has a different kind of setup that works for them. I currently have a laptop, drawing pad, second monitor, and a desk riser.

What is the most you spent on at-home office furniture and do you hate yourself for it now that you're returning to work?
