Faced a choice between a new tablet or a better monitor for my art...

I had $400 saved up and needed to upgrade my setup, so I had to pick between a Huion Kamvas 13 drawing tablet or a big 4K monitor for my old Wacom. I went with the Huion to try a screen tablet for the first time, and the drawing feel is way different than I'm used to. Has anyone else switched from a regular tablet to a screen one and had a weird adjustment period?

The adjustment period is totally real, it took me weeks to stop drawing with my whole arm like I did on my old Intuos. My lines were all shaky at first. Did you find yourself pressing way too hard on the screen, or was it more about the hand-eye coordination thing? I had to relearn how to sit so my shoulder didn't cramp up.

My first week I had to turn the pen pressure sensitivity way down because I was pushing holes through the screen protector. The shoulder cramp thing is real, I started using a cheap tablet stand to get a better angle.
