Does i3 lose it usefulness with more screens? (also a bar question)

Hey guys,
I am have been using i3-gaps for a week now and i really enjoy it on my laptop, just moved it to my desktop and setup the monitors. I have a quad-monitor setup and i3 feels way less useful with more monitors. I can only have 2 desktops per monitor while on laptop I had 10 per monitor. I know I have the same amount of space, but it feels much less useful with 4 monitors.It feels limited since I can only have 2 per monitor and they cant really move easy. Is there something I am missing? Is there a way to have 10 per monitor without it being extremely complicated?

The bar question is, what bar is easy to customize with decent documentation? i am using bumblebee currently and it is okay, but it feels a bit weird and i am having some alignment issues. I have seen people use i3blocks and it looks pretty nice. any suggestion were would be a good place to start for first rice?

i'm not sure about having more workspaces and why you don't have 10 while using multiple monitors.

Even if you press your super key + 5 ?
or any number?

But, here's a 3 part video which is good for first "rice"
i3blocks is good but i3status is just as good. up to you.
