A dual monitor setup is definitely nice and I enjoyed them when working in real offices but I have managed very well in the last two years having a single 27'' setup. It's one of those compromises I'm happy to make if it makes life easier in terms of power consumption, space and weight. Maybe having one monitor also helps me focus and doing less multitasking which I consider to be a good thing (no Slack interruptions).
I also do Python for data analytics / data science type of stuff and very rarely some C / C++ (I've worked in low latency stuff in the past and some components were built in C). Kotlin and Java are getting nicer and you can certainly build really good stuff with them. Tools like intelliJ are really good too ;-) I'm not too fussy with the programming language as soon as the teams are able to deliver value to the business and most of the time any general programming language will do it IMO. I found lack of domain expertise, lack of an ubiquitous language and team dynamics play a bigger role in the results you get but those are probably my bias showing.
