I got tired of dealing with the fact that every one of these "do everything in one box" docks are a mixed bag of variously questionable components and just bought a "pure" tb4 hub[1], which is a thing that exists now but didn't really before. It's a lot nicer to be able to just pick the usbc or tb components I need plugged into it rather than have to take shitty NIC 1 because DP transcoder 2 is good.
I also bought usbc-to-hdmi cables instead of dongles and am very happy with both of these decisions. Everything works a lot better now.

- culopatin 5y agoThis sounds great! Many times the docks have ports I don’t care about, this way I can attach whatever adapters matter to me only. A usbA hub, 2 display port adapters and an Ethernet adapter. Sweet!
