More and more I'm feeling "UX claustrophobic" with windows. Phone windows, desktop windows, the lot. Windows are too damn small! I keep thinking if I had HUGE, GINORMOUS windows (on a wall, surface, orvirtual space) my digital work would be so much easier

I hear you. I'm currently moving between three docs and if I could have them fully open, like I would on a big table, so I could easily look at while WHILE working on the other, that would be nice. This ask is much more than 'just add more pixels"

Lack of simultaneity is a definite weakness of a windowed workspace on screens. We are prevented from "seeing everything at once," and each window swap is a delay that interrupts flow, distracts, and even clears some info from memory. We LOSE info everytime the screen blinks...

Dual 4k. Seriously. I can keep most apps open in large enough windows and fullscreen the one that needs it. Portrait mode if needed, etc.

I bought a 50" 4k display for my Mac desktop to try. It was HUGE and exciting. But it quickly became clear the OS really didn't make it easy to manage that much space easily

To that point though, yeah, you start wanting smarter window management, a return to tiled windows even. macOS’ implementation of Snap is… welp.

This is where AR gets interesting as gaze detection could be such a helpful form of input. I wonder if we could hack it into/on top of existing displays?

I’d be surprised if Apple, which owns the company that invented Kinect, didn’t put this into future monitors

Gaze typing already exists - it is used for text input by people who have paralysis or severe motor disorders. It's also used as input for voice synthesis systems by the same people.
