I picked up one of those crazy ultra wide monitors (34" MSI optix 21:9 something-or-other) to replace a 27" qnix POS and an ancient 17" 4:3 LCD. It's been a game changer for me. I now arrange my windows mostly in columns: one 50% wide center column for my primary tool (browser, Xcode, vscode, slack (ugh)) and two tall single-tab terminals on either side. The terminals are more than 80 columns wide so they provide plenty of space for everything I need to do. I use Divvy on macOS to move and scale the windows from my keyboard but there are a lot of other options.
Dual monitors were nice for quite a while but I don't think I can go back now that UW is available.
