You might be fine with DisplayLink and two monitors, however in my experience DisplayLink with an M1 and four external monitors was nearly impossible to use because of the input lag. Sometimes the entire DisplayLink driver would crash. I bought an M3 Max instead, there is no robust alternative.

I'm using displaylink and get a daily display freeze about 1h after the first wake-up of the day. The issue is open for over a year now and I'm effectively ignored.

Even when it works, the lag is noticeable. Would not recommend going that way.
