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 a triple 27" 4k setup and like it. I keep most of the active applications on the center monitor and have youtube/browsing/etc on the sides.
