i can only say that with a Mac, you have a video editing display that is no good for productivity or web browsing my friend it's just good for high razz video and images. As Mac has been crazed display resolution they have always forgotten to increase the size of the elements of the graphic interface accordingly. And so the text and the two buys have got smaller and smaller, and smaller, and smaller until people like you and me, find it unusable ( all five of my macs are relegated to the storeroom now I'm back on windows )
I have the same problem that the higher the resolution they are making, the screens the tinier everything is getting on the screen. I think that user interface designers are still using the same way of design, that they used when we only had 1040×700 pixels screens.
As displays increase the resolution, web designers and app designers continue to use the same stupid eight pixel font size. Most fonts on the computer it should be about minimum 16 pixels these days, to be able to read without straining your eyes, or getting long sighted.
i usually change screen resolution and bring it down to 1280 x720 px, thats the only way i can work on my mac. The higher resolution screen, the tiiiiiiiiiinier the Menu Bar and UI texts get. On my iMac 27, i cant use it at all, uhless i have *** iOad sized windows each with iphone sixe text arranged filling the screen.. if a 27 inch iMac screen only serves like six iPads next to each other and can only display tiny text then all you can have is a lot of tiny windows on a massive screen.
What I wanted was a massive browser open on a massive screen so I can sit 2 meters away on the sofa. But it doesn't work, because the screen resolution is so high that anybody except a professional video editor can't use it for normal purposes. These kind of screens are no good for web browsing. The best screens for web browsing and document editing other ones which they made 10 years ago were about 1400 pixels wide
I have become long sighted because of using Mac for the last five years .
I think everybody is going to end up long sighted, because it's happening with all devices. The manufacturers are going crazy to increase the resolution but they don't seem to realize that it's making everything on the screen get smaller, and smaller, and smaller, I actually have to use a magnifying glass to read some stuff if the pinch to zoom function has been deactivated. That's another thing Which nobody seems to have noticed; namely, that when pinch to zoom first came out as a feature all websites was zoomable using to fingerprints on the touchscreen. Now hardly any websites are zoomable using pinch to zoom.
I have actually been saying for days that I am going to go and buy a low resolution LCD or even TFT external display that's usually how I end up working with a Mac or even a Windows PC if the display is too high resolution. This is what I would suggest to you to that you buy a simple 1440×900 Or 1440 x 900 px resolution Old external TFT monitor. You will then be able to edit documents and surf the web very comfortably without the tiny text a fact. This is what I usually do when working at home. Lately I had to stop that because I bought an external display the assess MB 169+ which causes the computer to crash and can break the GPU, because the mission control causes a bug with the drivers for that external USB display. Don't buy one of those for a Mac ever. I spent $170 on that and it nearly broke my Mac
I would say just get a simple old LG external monitor with a low pixel density
that's what I do when I can't stand it anymore. I seriously wonder why Apple haven't noticed that the menu by on a 27 inch 5K iMac is something that requires a microscope to be able to even read the text on
