I have three of these I've collected over the last 3 years, and none of them work anymore.

Is this the new USB-C future we were promised? With a single-point of failure for everything as the number of ports on laptop decreases year-on-year?

Yeah, I've never had one of those fail on me, I didn't know this was a thing people struggled with. I do make sure to not get the super cheapest brand, it's something in between.

My biggest frustration is that they never really have the exact combination of ports that I'm looking for.
