This is the same problem we have with images from rectilinear lenses (straight lines stay straight). The wider the angle of view occupied the screen (or photo), the more distortion there is near the edges or corners due to it being rectilinear (flat). Basically, the ratio of distance to the corner vs the center deviates too much from 1.0 (pixel angular width varies with the location of the pixel). When you start to run into this limit, a curved monitor works better (equivalent to a fisheye lens - circles stay circular) - pixel angular width stays closer to constant regardless of location on the screen.
Because the problem is angle of view, the size of the screen isn't actually important (other than the distance your eyes have to focus). A 30" screen sitting 2 ft away will provide an identical experience to a 60" screen sitting 4 ft away.
You should also try using a table that's not so deep. Place the TV on a bench behind the table, which is not as tall as the table (so the bottom of the screen is actually below table level but still visible). Your head and eyes are designed to look at stuff from slightly above the horizon, to far below the horizon. So positioning the center of the screen at eye height results in the top of the screen being uncomfortably high. Putting the TV on a shorter bench lowers it so most of the screen is below your eye level. While the shorter table depth allows the bottom of the screen to remain visible above the back edge of the table.

I've been using large TVs as monitors for many, many years now, and none have been as comfortable as my 2017 Samsung 55" curved 4K. The small curve keeps the corners in focus, and they are the very first thing I noticed when I bought a flat TV a few years later. I tried sizes ranging from 40" to 75" and the sweet spot really is 55" for eye comfort and productivity. I still use that old Samsung as my "work from home" display since I can stare at code for 8+ hours without any eye strain, but my other two PCs run LG OLEDs, which I think look amazing and I run them very bright, but that gets exhausting outside of games.

A simple solution (workaround) for the issue you have with any app that has multiple instances open, is to click and hold the icon on the dock and select the title of the window you want to come forward. Only that window will be brought in the foreground. Additionally you can always enable "mission control" or "application windows" in a hot corner (pisses a lot of people off if they're not used to it, but for me it's the best workflow feature of macOS by far!). That way you can see and sort the windows either for all applications (mission control) or a single application (application windows). To use just quickly hover to the top left, and bring the window you want in front by clicking on it.
bonus tip: During drag and dropping items from any app to another, instead of holding the items over the app icon and waiting for it to come forward, while still holding the items over the icon, hit the space bar, and that will immediately open the app window - saves some time.

I didn't go through all the comments, so not sure if someone answered this. Right click on the application's dock icon. You should get a list of all the windows associated with the application. If you select the window you want, this will be the only window that comes forward. Also you can have windows for an application minimize into the dock (instead of the application icon). This makes it much easier to find application windows that you've minimized. Keep up the good work!

I'm using 55'' 8K LG Nano for about 3 years now and I love it. It's near flawless. Image quality is stunning. The only thing is that 55'' might be slightly too big. 48'' would be perfect, but I wasn't able at that time to find 48'' 8K.
Nonetheless, I'm so happy with that buy, I don't think any multi screen setup is more comfortable for work that just a large screen with Fancy zones (on WIndows).

I've been using a 55" LG C1 for the last few years. I have it on a Rolling TV stand. Makes it much easier to position it just the right distance away. For me it's about 4 ft. The extra foot makes a big difference. Personally I don't use a regular desk. I use a lap desk in my recliner. I have the lap desk sitting on a couple of cheap bar stools that sit right below the TV so all I have to do is lean forward and pick up the lap desk for ease of use.

Man Ivāe said it before but dual 42ā LG C3 in concave style is a game changer. I really think youād enjoy it. I did the 55ā for 1 year prior to this & it wore me down with the general travel of my eyes and neck tilting. Tilting the 42ā monitors towards you is an entirely different level of immersiveness.
