I did it fairly often throughout. Left the 3D slider of my 3DS cranked up permanently, too, if you must know.

Either way I do own a bunch of 3D Blurays until they started making you choose between 3D and 4K and eventually stopped making them altogether.

Theres a bit of a difference between slider on the 3ds and the fad that was 3d tvs that came with their own glasses. We used it like a handful of times when we first got the TV, but I think no one I lived with actually liked the effect, it just made them nauseous or annoyed by the glasses. My parents were mad at first when i got rid of their 3d tv, and I said good riddance lol.

Well, 3D was a feature on many high end TVs, all the way to the start of the OLED era. It's not like it was mandatory to use. But yeah, not everybody was into it, and I certainly would much prefer glassless 3D as with the 3DS. The big problem there is supporting multiple viewers at once. I would definitely take it for a monitor or a phone, all else being equal.
