Burning out is still big problem on OLED for PC monitor. PC monitors should be used more years than smartphone and tend to display same content.

Some things could be counter acted with software (make desktop taskbar only visible when mouse reaches bottom of screen, etc.), but I would be interested in some real life data as to how long it would take for even burn out over the whole screen, till it drops as much, that the quality degrades to TFT level.

(there is a guy on Youtube who installed an OLED TV as his main monitor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXKhYH3BaIA&t=36s)

I'd be okay buying a new OLED monitor every year if they were available in the format I want (large ultrawide) and with low latency scalers, high refresh reates and without privacy destroying "smart" features plaguing TVs. Anything to get out of the crappy tradeoffs there are with backlit displays.
