I’ve got these things locally available in the $50-60 range. This being a generic brand, I imagine a buncha those are available globally. Anyone tried 'em, do they work OK with modern desktops (gnome, plasma)? Touch? DP-Alt or are they DisplayLink? Do they have PD?

Sellers are helpful nada, same with youtube videos, just marketing fluff.

    I have a non-touch 1080p one I got for work, 80€, brand is Arzopa. Works fine, uses USBC for power and video which is quite cool since it’s a single cable, it has 2 usbc ports, I guess if you have a lower power output on your PC’s port you can add a power brick, they’re also both functional so if one breaks you still have the other one. It also has a mini HDMI port.
    It came with three cables: usbc-usbc, usbc-usbc, miniHDMI-HDMI, all three good quality.
    It has folder case but carrying it in my backpack damaged it anyway, I have a couple bright spots, but they’re rarely visibile.
