But I usually stick to just one screen and switch between them using keyboard shortcuts or hot corners instead.
What about you? What do you prefer, and why?

Neither combos are perfect. Especially whenever I undock for a meeting or move between work and home office, there's always a mismatch between window placements.
I'm using virtual desktops to separate work for different projects, but there's two critical programs that don't allow me to be properly (in accordance to my needs, that is) opened on several desktops at once; Word (where I keep my diary) and VS Code (!).
I had a third monitor at one point, but it was pretty poor quality so I let it go. Can't say I really miss having three.
The laptop is my point of focus, I'll have reference materials on the screen above it when I need them.
If I had money and wasn't about to move country, I'd go for a nice big main monitor and relegate the laptop to secondary. Maybe next year.
Then there's my phone (when testing apps), so sometimes I do 4 screens. That's my limit.
