Just bought the Studio Display with Nano texture and I think it was the wrong decision.
Just grab a cheap used LG or Samsung UHD/QHD monitor screen or TV from a local pawnshop (make sure to check the screen quality in person since it’s usually non-refundable), Craigslist, or eBay. You won’t regret it. If you really want a 5K screen, check out LG 27MD5KL-B 27 Inch UltraFine 5K IPS monit

What's the best MAC monitor that you love the most? What are you using now?
LG 27 5k Ultrafine 27MD5KL, Thunderbolt. Best sharpness, easy, simply the best and Philips Monitors Evnia 49M2C8900LA love it for playing and working too. Even for photoworks perfect too. At this time I use a Mac Mini 16/512 + ext. Nvme SSD 2TB.

Best monitor for learning designer
What do you mean? Graphics? Maybe around 144 refresh rate if motion graphics is included, 16:9 aspect ratio, supports 99% DCI-P3, or least supports 99% sRGB. 4k Display. Brands like LG UltraFine 5k (27MD5KL-B) or LG 27UN880-B (Ergo) color accurate can help. I still like the Liquid Retina XDR and Pro
