I'm at true neutral.
Chaotic good here. They have different DPI too so you're never quite sure where your mouse is going to end up.

OK, calm down Satan....
You can use a software called LittleBigMouse to make this better. It's really nice in my experience with 2 1080p screens and one 4k. All roughly the same size
I spend hours aligning their bottoms and virtual position so now my three screens transfer the mouse exactly in their vertical middle.
I also use a tiling WM with tons of workspaces and if I switch workspaces my mouse gets reseted into the middle of the workspace anyway.

where does diagonal fall?
This is horrendous. I love it
I feel like all in the chaotic column should have at least one diagonal monitor.
Hell, probably.
I present you with my masterpiece
Looking at your picture makes my neck hurt.

Chaotic evil here. No regrets. 
Am I the only chaotic neutral here? I code on the right and do everything else on the left.
Nope. I'm a new convert and I love it. Laptop monitor to the left of the big landscape for random screens. It's fantastic

what about having a tv across the room as a second monitor?
If you only use the TV to watch media, you're lawful neutral. If you use it for gaming or anything else, you're chaotic good.
It's still going to be better than screen on budget laptops. I am convinced my laptop's screen is 30Hz and it surely wasn't manufactured to produce colors.

Ummmm... how about 2 vertical monitors above each other?
That's how I got this long ass screenshot, for example:
I don't know how else to do that, so I fixed it with hardware ʘ‿ʘ
But otherwise, true neutral.

Hard disagree. More monitors is morally better.
Vertical monitors are good for code, too.
One monitor isn't true neutral. It's broke-ass bitch. That's me. I'm a broke-ass bitch.
If you don't care about them matching, thrift stores can have some really good deals.

Tilted 22 degree to maximize the potential line length that can be displayed.

It's not how I would want to be all the time, but Chaotic Neutral is really great for reviewing documents in a PDF.

Love my lawful evil setup, works great!
At home: Chaotic good but with three monitors that are all different sizes
At work: Two monitors side by side, and then one above them
Not a programmer though, I make videos

I'm Chaotic Neutral (although my vertical monitor is on the left). It was an experiment that stuck because I like being able to read more lines of code at once.
I'm pretty much chaotic evil, with a laptop.
One thing I will say: anyone who has a single window spanned across multiple monitors needs battering. "Oh, yah, I fookin' love 'aving un two-centimeter black bar in middul of me Word doccumant". Unhinged sociopaths, all of them.
- 50% of web developers: Chaotic Neutral
- Salespeople: Lawful Neutral
- Programmers (and the other 50% of web developers): Unaligned, we know how to use shortcuts.
Lawful neutral at home and Chaotic neutral at work
What about those who eschew multi monitor setups in favour of an ultrawide?
basically neutral good without bezels
