[ale] 24" 4K monitor?

[Ethan]

it all depends on the quality of the display scaling options. 24" at 4k is
tiny without substantial display scaling. even 27" at 4k is still pretty
small imo (27" at 1440p native is perfect).

Windows is terrible at display scaling and MacOS is pretty great. no clue
about Linux.
