		cdstamper on Dec 30, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Ideal monitor rotation for programmers (2021) In my experience CalDigit docks are really solid. The only issue I've ever encountered is caused by my laptop demanding more power than the dock will provide: when I hit a power usage spike sometimes my laptop will briefly drop connection with the dock, causing my display to momentarily lose signal. This is easily fixed by plugging my laptop into a separate USB C power supply.

Same. I’ve had great luck with both the TS3+ and TS4. What few minor gripes I’ve had with them have been resolved by firmware updates.

It’s other brands, especially USB-C (rather than Thunderbolt) stuff that I find extraordinarily flaky.
