Who has experience designing with a 4K monitor? Do you like it? I’m looking to buy a new 32” monitor and not sure whether to go for 4K. I do ux/web design so not detailed photo editing, and I have concern about designing in an environment that is so different from what most users experience.

2k for sure..

4k might be overkill (because how close you sit to the monitor / size of monitor)

8k is overkill

make sure your computer/graphic card can handle the big display + 4k.

One thing to consider in terms of pixel density if you’re designing for mobile: most smartphones have high pixel density these days, so it should be ok if you use 4K. Maybe the same can be said for desktop devices too? And at least you can use a 1x view to double check things

I’m using this super wide and curved HP 38” monitor 3840x1600 resolution. It’s almost equivalent to 2 monitors side by side. Ok, before you balk at the curved thing, theres actually no distortion issues, at least for what I do...CAD, rendering, illustrator, and photoshop. Didn’t think I’d like it, but the extra width creates amazing screen real estate especially when multitasking.

My criteria: mesh seat and back, arms, headrest

I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.
