Swap the adapter with this when opening strobelight, then switch back to my apple adapter and viola! Lightboost works! Is this a bug, or do I really need to buy ANOTHER adapter? Thanks for all your hard work also

The reason that works is because you already unlocked LightBoost with the other adapter. After that point, the program acts as a resolution switcher. You can verify DDC is still not working because the brightness options won't have any effect.

You don't need an active adapter at all. You can use the VG248QE directly with DisplayPort.
