ThomasWaldmann·há 2 meses·discussYeah, it's a pity that TB2 cables and a TB3-TB2 adapter are still that expensive.Considering the age of that stuff, one would usually expect that to be very cheap.

ThomasWaldmann·há 2 meses·discussUse an (old) iMac as an external display for an Apple Silicon Mac — free, no dongle, via Thunderbolt Bridge.Apple dropped "Target Display Mode" in 2014 with the 5K iMac — and it never came back.TargetBridge brings it back via software, streaming your screen to the iMac at up to 5K over a direct Thunderbolt cable.Since v2.0.0, you can now even connect multiple iMacs to get multiple gorgeous 5K displays!FOSS, under the MIT license.Disclaimer: I am a project contributor, but not the original author of this project.
