I was looking for a new USB-c hub and came across this article. It's an interesting write-up of what is on the inside of some popular options

I bought a $200 USBC hub. It worked for a few months and then suddenly would do something to my laptop so that it would stop accepting a charge until the battery died completely and I restarted it.

Still works for my Steam Deck but largely a giant waste of money.
