Watched my coworker move her cursor to the right edge of her right-hand monitor to get it to over to the left side of her left-hand monitor. When I offered to show her how to adjust her display settings, she said she was used to it and didn't want to change it. I don't think I can walk by her desk while she's working ever again.

I'm guilty of this for texting or other phone-specific communications.

Sure, I could take a screenshot on the computer, email it to myself, download it to my phone, then add it to a text... Or, I have a camera right there. There has to be a good reason to not take the easy route.

If your messager can't be used on a computer I feel sorry for you. Signal, Whatsapp, Telegram all have windows or browser clients

Just use KDE connect to send files between your Phone and PC. Much simpler, and for a photo that would take literal seconds.
