Used to hang my monitor arms with a level, now I just eyeball it against the window frame

I spent like 2 hours getting my first monitor arm perfectly level a few years ago. Then I moved apartments and had to redo it and realized the floor in my new place is totally uneven. So now I just line it up with whatever is around it. Has anyone else just given up on perfect leveling and found it looks fine anyway?

Nah you're overthinking it, it's just a monitor.

Got a cheap second hand monitor from a local electronics shop for my setup. Worked fine for what I needed, no issues.

Why do people act like used gear is always a gamble? @uma_ellis is right, its just a monitor. I snagged a beat up Dell off Craigslist for 40 bucks a few years back, still works perfect. No dead pixels or weird flickering or anything. Sometimes you get lucky, sometimes you dont, but a cheap monitor is still a monitor.
