Looking for a way to automatically move my dock (lemmy.world)

I have a Macbook Pro connected to an external display. I prefer to have my dock on the larger external display, but when I boot up (or when my Mac wakes from sleep) the dock is on the Macbook display. I have tried in vain to find a way to keep it on the external display, or at least more easily move it there, other than the standard "move the mouse pointer to the bottom of the screen twice" method. Can this be accomplished with Shortcuts or an Automator action?

Think I may have found my solution - uBar. I have downloaded it and am trying it out, and honestly, the Windows taskbar-like aspect of it appeals to me (I use Windows 11 at my job). It's much more functional than the stock Mac dock, and I can stick it where I want it and it stays put. I will probably go ahead and purchase, once my trial is up.
