If the earth was flat you would be able to see the Rocky Mountains from Chicago.
The fact that as you approach any tall object from a distance you see the top of it first is proof the earth is round. If it were flat you would see the entire object at the same time.
We can "see" as far as the stars and planets, so don't invent a physical restriction that doesn't exist. Mjs001 is correct, which is why the early sailing ships had crow's nests in the upper masts, for lookouts to provide early warning of ships or hazards that were not visible from the deck. Or are you saying they didn't have them?

No you couldn’t. You can’t see that far not just because of curvature
