"USB-C: Who's got anything that actually uses it?"


          

So , I got the new 2017 MacBook Pro 15" with 4 USB-C ports (3 really because one is needed for charging.)

I have ZERO things that have USB-C connectivity.

The USB-C hub market/market of dongles is pretty bad right now.

Looking for connectivity options I see Apple doesn't really offer much - and never does Dell or Google.

I ended up buying a USB 3 port hub + ethernet adaptor from Amazon Basics, and a USB-C to display pot cable from Cable matters which is something Apple does not offer and Dell wants $32 for.


Questions?
Why aren't there more things using USB-C?

Where are the good USB-C hubs/dongles at? There's either a technical problem - or this is proof that capitalism+innovation don't really work perfectly!

Why when something comes out without USB-C do people complain - I can't think of anything that requires it yet.

why are you looking for a hub if you don't have any devices?
