I'm not sure what I'm going to do with my 2020 iMac in a year. I really want to be able to repurpose that 5k screen but Apple does not make it easy.

I might just leave it in perma-Windows Boot Camp.

If you're up for a project, you can swap the guts of those 5K iMacs for an aftermarket controller board which turns it into a regular monitor. It's a bit janky but a hell of a lot cheaper than buying a new 5K monitor.

I mean the obvious other choice would be Linux. Wayland is pretty good with hidensity screens nowdays.
