I am using 80% of my time working with Dasung eink monitor. The advantages are:
-Zero eyestrain
-Focussed work/Less Distraction
-Less temptation to do anything else (e.g. videos) because its not inviting to do so
-More energy after work day and improve of sleep quality
-No Bluelight exposure
Disadvantages:
-Only BW so need to look at normal screen for graphics
-Needed two eink screens otherwise two small to work (but ordered now the 25inch one)
That's a good point, what is the first adressable market for such a product to gain first momentum before it can become mainstream. Those seem to be low hanging fruits:
-Writers
-Coders/Terminal Users like sysadmins
-DIY/Hardware Hackers/Raspberry PI/ESP32/Cyberdeck folks
-Productivity Hackers
-Health Tech folks
-Gadget Lovers
-Limited Functionality Devices for Education
-Folks with medical pre-conditions who need to use eink (e.g. https://dasung-tech.myshopify.com/blogs/news/how-dasungs-e-i...)
I think there is a market, I am just surprised that we take usual monitor like eye-strain as well as the blue light for granted and haven't done anything against it for years. Even though we are having more display usage than ever.
yes and eink monitor would be certainly an alternativ for you (i.e. Dasung monitor). Or even an eink laptop. We are actually working on building one at EI2030. Follow our twitter and join our discord: https://twitter.com/EI2030_official/status/13709912725598412...

Here is a pic of my setup (actually Dasung featured it): https://twitter.com/DasungTech/status/1391693381726658561/ph...
