Here you can use the oled for modern purposes, why is it good to limit just for 4:3? I did not get it.
Um, personally I don't want a curved 21:9 screen with a glossy black finish and Ambilight. It irritates me. 🤷♂️
I'd rather have a small 4:3 panel I can install in a wooden box.
If needed I will paint it, so it looks a bit like a Commodore 1702 or similar monitor.
Or maybe, make it look like an IBM MDA monitor (design was cloned somewhat often).
The empty space in that box could be used to house a homemade linear power supply! ^^
Edit: There's a catch with the infamous 320x200 resolution (line doubled to 320x400; MCGA mode 13h): It uses non-square pixels.
A CRT doesn't care, because it's mostly working with lines.
320x240 (VGA mode x) and 640x480 (Standard VGA mode 12h) are using square-pixels. They look fine on flat-screens, too.
Edited.
