I'm so close to buying an ultra wide but really want 4K to come down a little bit. This is really tempting.

One of the only ultrawide 4k options is the 40" LG, I believe.

Similar price to the last great deal samsung ran for this monitor. Since inflation, i would say this is really a discount compared to the price it was a couple of years ago. Great monitor for work btw. Gaming, you are not adding much.

Make sure to check the condition of the display as soon as you get it. I believe the time to check on and get refund is really short time period.

4K is overrated for games and productivity. Most people don't have the graphics card to drive a game at 4K on a standard 16:9 screen, let alone an ultrawide with more pixels. And watching movies on a 32:9 ratio is kinda funky. I have this and love it for 1440p gaming.

I'm thinking of grabbing it for storage sims, seems outside of VR these curved ultra wides really shine there

Get two 4K TVs as dual monitors. Literally the same thing

Bought the same monitor 2 years ago for this price (i think was 900 something after tax). Great monitor with no issues. I had a dead pixel a month ago, but was able to fix it by running the pixel-fixing website for few hours and it was gone all together.

Major thing to consider :
Desk space- this monitor's default stand take a LARGE amount of space, it was fine initially but i ultimately bout the monitor arm stand which cost additional 350$ ish, so definitely take that into consideration because normal stands will not hold the weight of this computer.
Usage- for work, this monitor is great, you can easily move things from side to side and split things (can get program like displayfusion to make things easier to move /split). There is no comparison with two monitor side by side since the fluidity is much better and u can split to 3 screens or whatever you like with the app.
As for gaming, many games dont support screen this wide, so consider that when buying for gaming. Many games i play i actually end up using half of the screen and have the other half open up guides or youtube video etc.

How's the fonts in windows? I've heard these monitors have lots of issues with displaying standard text. Also is there any option for split screen so you can do two things at once?

You're saying this is better than a 2 monitor setup?
