I have two external displays connected to my MacBook Pro 13" M1 2020 and can't get them to stop mirroring each other

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.6

what everyone else already said, PLUS:


When you invoke Mirror Displays, it sets the two displays to EXACTLY the same compromise resolution and timing, and runs them off ONE rasterizer/display-generator.


The MacBook Pro 13-in with Apple-Silicon M1 has only one available display-generator, so if you do manage to turn off mirroring, one of the displays will turn off.
