I’m reworking my computer setup, and I’m currently debating with myself over whether I want to pick up a second monitor, or sell my current one and replace it with an ultrawide. I figured I’d seek out anecdotes to see which setup people tend to prefer.

Edit: Thanks y’all for the responses. I see a lot of people doing UWD+1, a few using dual, and very few using none at all. I’m at least going to roll with two monitors, but I’ll have to do some measuring to see if I can make an UWD+1 work for my desk.

    I was a mere peasant working on one monitor. When I finally decides to take advantage of double and triple monitors, my eyes were enlightened, and I transcended as I could focus on multiple screens without having to rearrange windows that much. I recommend getting another smaller monitor because it can fit on your desk space easier. You can also turn a moutor vertical, so it’s more configurable. Ultrawide monitors imo are not worth the cost, although they do look cool.
