I take my personal laptop in and have a docking station for it, so the good screens are at work too, but they have to be fairly porn-less and I can't smoke weed AT them which, just dealbreaker.
Now that I work from home and can ssh into my work laptop, all my screens are the same screens. I don’t know if this is good or bad, but my boss is happy with my work and I’m happy I get to use a window manger that doesn’t suck. 🤷
In theory I could do my job from a good screen, because everything is either in a browser or a remote server somewhere. Anything would run better than the POS surface laptop they issued, and I'd surely be more productive and efficient if I purpose-built a workstation with open-source, tailored to what I do.

The one at work forces me to use Windows and Teams. The one at home lets me tinker with open soirce and gives me the freedom to do what I want.

Hey, could be worse. My bad screen forces me to use MacOS AND Microsoft Teams.
My good screen has Fedora and Stardew Valley.

It will never happen at my company though.

If you gaze long enough into a screen, the screen will gaze back into you
