I process using a large color calibrated monitor that's designed for graphic design work.

But here's a depressing thought: the stats on my YouTube Astro Music Video channel shows that the vast majority of viewers/listeners are experiencing my music and astrophotography on a smart phone. Low bandwidth, low resolution playback.

The general public will always choose convenience over audio/video quality and this has always been true.

Ashraf AbuSara:
I always wondered how everyone views other people's work on astrobin. I often process my image on a 77 inch OLED TV while laying back on my recliner, but when it comes to actually viewing others, sometimes I view and browse astrobin from my PC, but often I do it from my small cellphone. Also perspective on a cellphone of a portrait image is much better than a landscape image.  

We spend a lot of time trying to present our images in the best way possible, but often that does not take into consideration how others view it. For example I used to post large FOV of galaxies where everything looks quite small and hard to discern on a phone, so now I am trying to present closer crops of the main target in the image to help viewing on smaller screen. 

Would how others view your images affect the way you present yours? 

I put a few options in the poll but if anyone has additional options they may think of that does not fall into the categories below let me know and I will add them.

Hi Ashraf, I have no experience with polls in AB, yet it would be useful to be able to enter at least 2 answers. In my case I use primarily a monitor, yet I frequently browse images on my phone (missing most of the details). As @Jerry Gerber says, I suspect that more than the 13% (current value in the poll) go through smartphone, even if it is a secondary device.

Anyway you posted a good question.

Ciao, Mau

Good to hear. I am reading on Pixinsight Forum many reporting crashes in MacOs, yet it is good to hear that with M3 it works well, because that is the only option that joins potability and Russel Crowman's software performance, as far as I know.
Thanks!
