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 have an ultrawide at home and dual at work and I like both for different things. Having an ultrawide is really nice for gaming (when it’s supported) but it’s annoying having to tab out to look something up so I’ve been looking at getting a second monitor recently. Dual is great for work since I need all the screens, makes it easier to work than tiling windows on one screen.
