GASP what projector and do you recommend it? I've been resisting the influencers that have them but I keep looking at my slanted wall-ceiling and thinking it would make a good projector screen 👀

I got a crappy $80 offbrand one and regret not doing more research first. I really just wanted something that tilted with keystone correction + bluetooth/wifi (was less concerned about resolution or brightness), so mine is… ok but not great.

I found out since that Reddit has some forums with recs!

That said, this is the one I got (before I fully left amazon): https://a.co/d/21sBbj8

I like the autofocus and auto keystone, but wish it had horizontal keystone as well as vertical. I am also not a fan of the software at all — I have to manually switch it to HDMI every time I start it up, and it feels bad

Mounting a hybrid tv/monitor to the wall and buying a super comfortable wedge pillows was the single kindest thing I've done for my kyphotic spine. Hard relate. Enjoy!
