Default Giving up on DisplayLink

I had high hopes and wanted the convenience of a dock, but it's so problematic.

1) Random dock to computer USB disconnects when viewing videos, particularly when using the dock's Ethernet. Although, the new 8.6 M1 seems to be more stable? Too soon to know for certain.

2) But, 8.6 lacks Night Light support.

3) Very odd, and SSD killing, constant temporary file writing of DisplayLink log file. This may be the reason others have complained about the WUDF chewing up CPU, because it's busy writing to the temp file.

4) Can't use the wonderful PixelZoomer pixel measurement program. It works just fine with laptop display and laptop display and one dock external monitor, but not two external monitors. Something about the dock confuses it.

Overall, too many annoying and aggravating issues. Fortunately, Amazon will take back the dock, even though it's been over 30 days.
