I have 2 24" displays side by side. At some point I unified the desktops (or Spaces if you're on Linux) to make it act "as if" it was a single ultra wide monitor. This was absolutely awful to use, especially during Google meetings where I had to share my screen.
Besides, I like being able to rotate 90° one of my screen because sometimes it's just the best way to work.
This thing is stupid. Appealing maybe, but stupid.
It's not meant for regular use, it's digital signage
PL setups are the best.
Yes
if you use a tiling wm/compositor or extension, big screens aren't so bad, because it will usually split first in the middle, basically giving you two screens, but with the option to also maximize over the whole area, if needed.
