     @natalie@nya.social probably would get way too confusing with all the different resolutions that are out there nowadays

     @natalie@nya.social @Polychrome@poly.cybre.city @kura@z0ne.social which means the k terms are more used for marketing

     @Polychrome@poly.cybre.city @kura@z0ne.social @puniko@mk.absturztau.be the *K terms are kinda meaningless atm anyway since nobody can seem to decide, for example, if 4k is 4096x2160 or 3840x2160 (although the latter seems to be most widely adopted)

     @kura @natalie @puniko can we agree adding a .1 to a resolution makes it 16:10
     
     Like 2.1k, 4.1k :blobcatthonking:

     @puniko@mk.absturztau.be @natalie@nya.social I support the LGHDTV+ community
     
     I would prever the "old" style of using the vertical size (1080p), but people prefer to use 2k 4k and 8k now. Doesn't fix the ultra wide issue though.

     @puniko @natalie @kura the moment we walked away from using exact spec/measurements, marketing took over.
     
     Marketing lives in ambiguity.
