It’s only worse with seagulls. I saw a cool big speckled seagull once and decided to google how it’s called. It’s called “big speckled seagull”. A small gray seagull would be called a “small grey seagull”. All the other animals are usually called something cool, like if you see a big beaver, it’s “Johnson’s beaver”, or an eagle, and it’s called a “southern nesting eagle”.
Then a fucking seagull is a fucking seagull.
IPS matrix screens were kinda ok even in 2007, when I was selling them, but they had a super shitty reaction time, so everything had quite visible trails. That was the time when a good CRT was still a professional choice. But now, and for the last 10 years or so, IPS became much better, and kept their great color palette, so there are zero reasons to look elsewhere, a standard midrange monitor does the job. And if you want even less trouble, just buy a designer a used imac - that’s an almost complete workplace, and apples retina screens are also IPS. This is what several development (mobile, web) companies I worked in did.
Well, you can go fancy and buy new ones, but the used ones are in abundance - rich mac fanboys switch to every new model that comes out
