To put in other words Apple TV 4K can FILL my ultrawide monitor but when using Roku I get annoying large black borders on both sides typically wasting part of the screen. Same wastage that YouTube/Netflix/Amazon apps does to a modern TV when streaming a widescreen movie with black borders on top bottom and NO zoom option to fill up the whole TV screen.

I don't have one but according to a post I googled up titled: "Apple TV 4k 2nd gen doesn't support 21:9 aspect ratio" it just stretches an image to fit the screen.
Another post on an apple forum asking if it can do 21:9 got a response about overscan.😀 So, as far as I can tell, it doesn't have 21:9.
Opinions vary, but I prefer black bars to stretching,
