Hey, author here. Yes the treadmill deck desk is rather maximalist!

I also enjoy very portable setups, particularly for forests / mountains, but I also sometimes computer in or outside cafes. My portable setup for being out in nature is really weird looking though, so I'm slowly ramping up the weirdness levels of my posts about these topics rather than diving right in. While the location and hardware isn't exactly mundane, the deck desk idea is fairly close to our daily experience and so approachable. The next increment away from the mundane is hammock computing - https://mgsloan.com/posts/supine-computing/ . I have two more posts that are work-in-progress that are more in the unconventional and minimalist direction. So yeah, I think those might appeal to you more!
