I've been getting in the habit of doing this at least once a week! And while I'm at it, I'll clean my phone screen too 😄

Whenever a colleague points out how bad my screen is 😅
True to that 😂😂😂😂
Less often than I should? 🙃
I clean mine maybe once every two weeks.
When you buy a monitor or use a new computer do you calibrate the color?
If on MacOS
Open System Preferences.
Click on Displays.
Click Color Tab.
Hold down Option and click Calibrate. (this gets you the Advanced editor)
Follow the steps in the wizard.
There you go! Some web designers don’t even do it. If you calibrate the screen the colors will be more true.
What do you use to clean the screen?
Microfiber cloth.
these bad boys
Not as often as I'd like!
I see it needs cleaning, but as it's touch I need to shut off my machine to clean it or interesting things happen.
So, I decide I'll clean it when I shut down at the end of the day.
I Forget. Of course.
Repeat 😊
Once I can’t read the screen...
Exactly same as you - we had these great wipes. Since I moved to Israel, I haven't found them though, so it has been less 🙈
Probably not enough. Oops.
Perhaps the more critical question is, "how often do you clean your keyboard?"
It seems like most keyboards I encounter, were one to hold them upside down, tap them, and capture the contents into a cup, and add hot water, one could make a fairly hearty soup.
Once a month, or when it gets really dirty.
At home? When they need cleaning, which isn't that often, they just don't get dirty most of the time.
At work? Never because I never have anything to clean them with and never think about bringing something from home, ahah.
I can't remember the last time I cleaned mine so as other's have said probably not enough 😆
I think I tend to clean the screen on my laptop more than my external monitors though, even though I use the externals more
Wait... You have to clean displays?
When you've gone out of town with a touchscreen-using spouse and your laptop is the one you brought with you, you find that, at the end of the trip, your screen is covered with finger-drag marks because of your spouse's habits.
Nice one😂😂😂
When we were in college, my friend said "Gus, look how dirty your monitor is.. Are you serious that you want to take care of censored (my first love)? You can't even take care of your laptop."
Damn, after that, I clean my laptop immediately after I got home.
Funny question.
Once a month, but when I do, I have the feeling that I'm using a brand new laptop.
More often than my steering wheel and not as often as my keyboard.
Every day I clean all my devices including screens
Had this monitor since February and haven't cleaned it 😬
When the layer of dust on the screen is thick enough that I have to turn up the brightness.
I clean mine whenever I see a spot that HAS to be cleaned. Only then I reach for my fiber thing cloth to clean my monitor😂😂
Thinking about this. I’ve not in a while what do you use to clean yours?
Once a year :P
Constantly.
I just get used to reading around the dirty spots.
Right up until the dirty spots start looking like delimiters in your code.
Whenever I can't figure out what's on the screen...
So, are they cleanable? Thanks Jess :)
My work screen never, my phone once a month with my t-shirt
During zoom meeting 😄
My laptop (touch), every few days. The desktop (no touch)... Ummm... I haven't lol. IDK how long I've had them. A year? 🤷♂️
When the contents on the monitor become cryptographically secure due to the amount of dirt.
2018.
When I no longer see myself when its turned off.
/jk
I can't stand having a messy monitor, but I also don't have a set schedule. My cleaning kit is always nearby, and I clean as I go.
On Monday every week, I have OCD xD.
Once a week, I can't stand fingerprints on screens.
Let's just say not very often. xD
I clean when I can't figure out what is a comma of what is a dust grain. Haha
When I am unable to see the code 🧐
Almost every day now since I started to take pictures of my notebook for my Instagram account @lampewebdev
It's been a long while while since I cleaned mine. I intent to clean all my peripherals (keyboard, mouse, monitor, laptop) as well as the desktop as part of my house chores. 😅
I bought a pack of cleaning cloths two years ago... I lost it two years ago.
I planned and hope to do it once a week or two but doing it once a month, so productive.😊😂👏
As often as I clean my keyboards. I bought that sticky substance from Wish and it works perfectly.
First thing in the morning. Everyday.
Quarterly?
It depends on the season. Once a month in the summer, and once every two months in the winter.
When I open it in public and get embarrassed at how dusty it is :D. I never notice it at home for some reason.
Almost every day with a microfiber cloth.
I clean the monitor screen every day before work and after work.
There's probably nothing that triggers me more in the office than someone touching my screen.
Let me clean it, 1,2, it's done My phone's monitor, LoL
I am not comfortable with this line of questioning.
Whenever I start to make reading errors due to the splotch-buildup.
Once a week.
I try to clean the screens, clean my desk and tidy up the "place" every Monday.
lol, this is a tricky one. I haven't for months, until seeing this thread. Thanks for the reminder.
