I have my Macbook on a stand. The cables need to route lower. I try to support the cables by putting the MBA away from the edge. But they're now very loose regardless.

According to this thread (2022... in the Neo forum??), this isn't anything to worry about: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/loose-usbc-port.2373479/

However, I use the official Apple USBc-HDMI & USB-A adapter and it's disconnecting at times.

I'll take a trip to the Apple store to ask, but what should I be prepared to say? Should I push for a replacement on the $50 USBc-HDMI adapter? Asking for the USBc ports replacement seems a bit optimistic.
Or are those adapters shoddy and I should buy something better for less money this time? (This is a straight question, not rhetorical and no sarcasm intended)
