Don’t upgrade to watchOS 8.4. Once again, does not charge!!!

Once again, watch does not charge. Nothing worse than waking up to a dead watch on the charger. This has been a continuous problem ever since OS8. Wish I had never bought a new phone and been pushed to update watcHOS. You would would think by 8.4 they would have figured it out….!
