Hi,

I got a 2019 16inch macbook pro running big sur and I'm using a 29inch ultrawide FULL HD external monitor, but the fonts are weird, they are not as sharp as when I connect the monitor to a windows machine.

I searched a little bit about this and it seems mac os doesn't like full hd monitors, but I've seen people complaining about this on 1440p monitors as well.

I decided to get another monitor and I would like to keep using an ultrawide monitor, but I'm afraid this problem will carry over because of the resolution (I don't have too many options of ultrawide monitors in my country and they are all either 2560x1080p or 3440x1440p).

So my question is if you guys recommend any monitor? Should I give up on 1440p and go to a 4k? Does anyone use an ultrawide with their macbook? Is it good?
