People love the idea of wall mounted tvs. But they have no will to consider the details.

At least it’s not also over a fireplace.

    I have a TV over the fireplace. Do you think it's too high? To me it feels good.

    /r/tvtoohigh was a tragic loss to humanity the day Reddit died.

    Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !tvtoohigh@lemmy.world

    Could we make a new one here on Lemmy?

    These kind of ultra niche subs really need a huge audience. I'm afraid contributors would be posting in the dark for a while if it was here.

    I have been making contributions to the sub I created. Posts occasionally reach the fp with some upvotes and comments.

    I re-created it a couple months back. Not too much activity lately tho. I used to self post from random home improvement shows. Couple of posts fp’d.

    Couple of people even posted their own.

    I haven’t been active lately but I do keep tabs on it

    The minimalistic cable management is very relaxing :)

    Crazy how it looks like there’s even conduit in place to route the cables in the wall, but they just didn’t even bother.

    They didn't even need to put it that high

    I love how no one has mentioned the shoddy electrical wiring running along the baseboard. TV is too distracting!

    My guess is whoever lived there before had a much larger TV mounted on the wall and then an entertainment center under it for peripherals (hence plugs on the ends down below). Current owner slapped the cheapest/smallest TV they could still mount on the wall thinking it would cover the old cable management setup

    This is why I carry velcro cable ties everywhere

    I usually get air b and B's for the location not the ambiance but this could be worse. Usually they have pictures before you rent too.

    I never really have issues to be honest though. I usually try to pay a little more to find a nice place and if there aren't any I'll just get a hotel. Some cities air b and b is a better option like near a beach or in a historic town where you can get a whole house near somewhere fun. It's ok for cabins too. Hotels are easier and a more convenient experience depending on the company.
