16:10 has always been superior to both but I quite like my second 4:3 monitor. Also I was referring to mobile devices obviously (where most internet traffic comes from), and 4:3 isn't a size measurement.
Uh.. I don't know if it sounded snarky, but mine was a joke. "If the extra space of 16:9 is going to be occupied by ads, better go back to 4:3 aspect ratio."
Oh I'm sorry, I didn't get that. 16:9 doesn't really add "extra space" to 4:3, it's just a different ratio of the same exact space in terms of horizontal to vertical proportions. A monitor of a certain size will have the same diameter regardless of aspect ratio.
