Do you use both a personal desktop and laptop? (lemmy.sdf.org)

I'm moreso curious if laptop functions have been offloaded to phones. If you have a full gaming desktop, do you see the use case for an additional laptop? or if most people here don't see the need for the increased processing power of a desktop, do you just use your laptop and a phone?

For myself, I mainly use my desktop, but I have a bunch of quite old laptops for tinkering.

I'm not sure how much of an outlier I am, but for me it usually goes

desktop for more demanding games or if I'm playing with friends. Also use it for running dnd sessions
laptop for writing, productivity stuff, or anything else where I don't need a lot of power or if I'm on the go.
my phone is usually used for scrolling or other time waster apps

How much I use each one really depends on the day
