It's better to have some separation between each port
Ex: with 3" of cable in between each the 2 ports vs like in above design
Don't recall why though

Nonetheless, I'm in for a set. I have two for my laptop now, and I find myself swapping them around a lot. I can keep one in my laptop bag, one at my desk, and another as a backup.

on the Apple Mac Mini M4 (the most recent version of Mac Mini), using these things and other short adapters on the rear ports causes interference with the wifi. no issue on the front ports. IMO, that's more a design flaw in the Mac Mini M4 than the adapters. i use adapters on other computers just fine, without any issue.

for example - i have zero issues with the UGreen dock. however, i experience significant slowdowns using these kinds of adapters and similar 90-deg ones. however, if i use extension 90-deg ones it's fine. i have a lot of metal near the mac mini which i can't do anything about. just the right combination to create issues with the signal.
the mac mini design is flawed

Not enough shielding/grounding or whatever.

the Mac Mini's enclosure is thick metal, so the only place Apple engineers could effectively put the wifi antenna, was on the bottom plastic cover of the unit. this makes it extremely vulnerable to signal degradation. some have had success fixing the issue by putting the thing on its side.
