Apr 5, 2021 at 17:30 comment added Ramhound @pkamb - I am honestly torn, I am typically of the mindset that a question must be focused, which means a question asking for USB Type-C hubs cannot be answered by the suggest to use a Thunderbolt 4 Hub 2 and half years later. The fact Thunderbolt 4 is backwards compatible with USB Type-C is irrelevant detail in my eyes. I believe a new question should be asked, a new answered submitted, and the current question protected.
Apr 5, 2021 at 15:49 comment added pkamb I somewhat agree with you that TB4 devices shouldn't be the top answer for that question, which is why I added TB4 hubs as a separate answer and only linked to it. But that TB4-specific answer was deleted as part of this cleanup.

Apr 5, 2021 at 5:25 comment added user41259 My answer has 1 upvote it might as well not exist among dozens of garbage answers. This is what Google finds, this is where the answer should be. What's so hard understanding in this? I can't control Google, I can't control people not upvoting. Information must be free.
Apr 5, 2021 at 5:16 comment added user41259 A Thunderbolt 4 hub isn’t what the author of the question was looking for -- BUT IT IS!!! That's the whole point: if you want a hub for you USB C laptop which can pass the DP signal, buy a TB4 hub. This is non-trivial, unexpected and unknown. And editing my own buried answer achieves nothing. Sigh. I just want to share knowledge. Knowledge, that so far, is incredibly hard/impossible to find otherwise. This is what Google finds so this is where it needs to be added.
