I have 24" and 27" full HD monitors. Honestly, I’m much more comfortable using the 27-inch one, because it’s larger and there’s no need to move it close to me, as is the case with the 24-inch one, on which everything is too small. Yes, you have to move much closer to see the pixels on 24 inches than on 27 inches, but in both cases you have to move uncomfortably close to see the pixels on them. If you sit in front of these monitors at a reasonable distance, approximately at arm's length, the pixels are not visible anywhere, and therefore in this case a 27-inch monitor looks more advantageous in comparison with 24 inches, because it is larger, which gives more pleasure in games, movies and the program interface, where there are a lot of small details, then when the 24-inch at arm's length seems too small, which is why you have to move it closer, in turn, this is not good for your eyes. What I mean is that 27 inches for full HD is not something bad or criminal if you have made this purchase. On the Internet they say differently how bad it is, but from personal experience I would prefer 27 inches full HD.

In my experience 32 inch for 4k and 2560x1440 for 27/28 inch, I own a 4k 27'' monitor, an Omen 27u with 144hz. With 4k you'll see tiny paint dots of sharpness in 4k.

Bored because you had no purpose to use for. For coders, it is awesome.

A thing to keep in mind is that uneven display scaling degrades performance because it has to calculate a lot behind the scenes, so it's not always recommended to use them. Also, if you work with Macs, they don't have the scaling Windows has, so you'd have to keep in mind that you'll mostly be able to use either 100% or 200%. Unless you buy really high-res screens or Apple's Studio displays..

if your monitor is old or you aren't satisfied with its quality and size you should go for a 27" 1440p 170+ hz one for most uses or a 32+ inch 4k 60+ hz for your playstation and movies. 4k monitors are very expensive and so are the upgrades needed for your pc to run your games at that res and 32" might be slightly too much if you sit close to your pc. the lower res and size might even allow you to go for a qd-oled on your 27" for the same price as an ips higher size 4k res monitor and the oled will look better. both of those though will probably cost you a lot so i'd personally just go for a 27" 1440p 170-240 hz ips myself.

there is a thing you can do on windows to fix text clarity issues, i think it's called adjust clear type text or something. if you type clear type on the search you will probably find it. give it a try and see if it fixed your problems. there are some screens that are bgr instead of rgb, making it harder to read on those. from what i have heard you can fix that (i kid you not) by turning the screen upside down (effectively turning the bgr into rgb) but i think that way you lose features like g-sync/free-sync if i'm not mistaken.

comparing the ppi seems kinda pointless because a 27" monitor that's slightly farther away will look the same as a 24" monitor that's a bit closer. It just comes down how much of your view you want to be filled by your monitor. The main advantage of a big monitor is that you can move it farther away which is healthy and relaxing for the eyes but the drawback is that you need more space to do that.
