why is a resolution primarily measured in vertical pixels, but a screen size is measured in diagonal? shouldn’t it be vertical, so that it’s easily comparable across resolutions and sizes?
Are resolutions predominantly measured in vertical pixels? I thought it was horizontal? Like, 1080p is 1080 wide? I don’t know anything about resolutions though so I’m likely wrong!
no, no, they have a point

1080p is 1920x1080 (WxH)
1440p is 2560x1440
Then you get to 4K and whoops, we broke the naming convention
Oh my god. Duh 😂 I literally did the 1920x1080 thing but somehow still thought 1080 was the width 😂 Thank you!
