I find it unfortunate that m1 macs have this problem. This person's creativity could have been put to use on something other than fixing a flaw in a computer.
Yeah, I made this app as I switched a family member's mac from an Intel mini to M1 and was mystified by the fact that no matter what tricks I was trying, it was not working with the Lenovo 24" QHD display as before (getting a 4K display was not an option due to cost and size constraints - no good 24" 4K display is available for a reasonable price and there ppl who don't want huge displays on their desks). I purchased a HDMI dummy but had constant issues with it, so I had to explore other avenues.
My creativity is normally put to use on something other, like MonitorControl, but working on BetterDummy is fun as well. :)
Probably doesn’t qualify as reasonably priced, but this 24” monitor has suited me well. I shrink everything by one notch and everything is very crisp and “retina”.
Now that is software I have a use case for! I used some abandoned menu bar app for this. Nothing worked, except the manual slider, which was enough for me.
