I tried i3 (and sway wm) on a couple of occasions specifically because I have an ultrawide, but I could never get into it. The tiling stuff is very cool, but I prefer gnome in pretty much all other regards.
Are you using i3 as your daily driver?

Another thing that looks cool but I've yet to setup with mine is the ability to split rhe ultrawide into a pair of virtual monitors that the OS sees as multiple physical displays.
This is something I keep meaning to look into for screen sharing.

Some form of tiling window manager or tool is very useful indeed when using Ultrawide.
A bonus if you can configure it to add side "gutters" when you have only one window open.

To be honest with a pure tiling WM, such as i3, there isn't a huge amount of use to this. On Windows I could see it being very handy.
