I've been using my LG C1 48" OLED for 4 years as a gaming and general use monitor. It gets used pretty much constantly, more so since I retired over a year ago.
One thing that bothered me in the beginning was the overly aggressive auto dimming, bought an engineers remote and turned that off.
Like everyone else I was worried about burn in and took the usual precautions, most have been mentioned here.
Auto hide taskbar, windows dark themes, let LG take care of the pixels, put all desktop icons on a second monitor, etc, etc.
Now I have gotten over the "burn in" fear and don't even give it a second thought any more. Just use it like any other monitor.
There are no signs of burn in anywhere on my screen.
I wouldn't hesitate to get an OLED for gaming or otherwise. It's got to be the best upgrade I've ever done for my PC (or PC's).
