Just got this delivered from AliExpress, I may be new to MCU and wiring and such but I know this isnt ACTUALLY asking me for 2 ground wire connections? Seems shady or am I just overthinking it.

I would be massively surpised if they were not connected together, if you have a multimeter then you could just do a continuity test.

its just likely got a ground on both sides so you have a choice and if you have them orientated differently.

although it is possible that its isolated so you can use different voltage reference on your data line vs power line. however i think its unlikly. as mentioned above. run a continuity test and see if they are connected together or not.

I'll update this tomorrow, I have to go get another multimeter since the one I had was old and I'd rather just get a new one for all this
