I seem to have gotten stuck in MacOS / Xcode purgatory.
I'm on OS Sierra/10.12.6.
When I try to update, I get a warning, that there's an issue with upgrading vs DisplayLink and so it cannot be done.
That directly conflicts with Xcode which (as of now, on App Store) only works on 10.13.2 or later.
I cannot find a place to download an earlier version of Xcode. I cannot upgrade to High Sierra.
How can I get this happening?

Support Ending November 30, 2019 In keeping with Apple's release cycle, macOS 10.12 Sierra will no longer be receiving security updates. Sierra was replaced by High Sierra 10.13, Mojave 10.14, and the newest Catalina 10.15. Our latest fully-supported operating system if macOS Mojave (10.14).
To update your Mac, open the System Preferences app or the "About This Mac" menu. If your Mac is still running macOS High Sierra or earlier, you'll need to go through the App Store to update it. You should update your Mac whenever you can, as every update comes with new features and security patches.
You should be on macOS High Sierra (10.13. 4+) and have Xcode 9.4+.
You can get it here at this URL: https://developer.apple.com/download/more/ to download a version of Xcode you want. Specifically, get 9.2. This is the recent version that works with mac OS Sierra.
Edit: Xcode 9.2.1 is no longer an available version. 9.2 works.

Xcode 9.2 works well for Mac OS Sierra (10.12.6). I installed it today (3rd Feb 2020).
