People are saying this is dumb and various things. But don’t understand how this could actually be useful. Doing things like USB>HDMI>Network and then reverse on the other side.
Legit use cases for interesting things like this.

Can I get some context on why there’s so much hate for this?

Put a second adapter on the other end so it goes USBC -> HDMI -> USBC and it should work just fine..
[edit]: Or perhaps I may be an idiot? I just assumed it was simple pinout conversion but you know what they say about assumptions… it makes an ass out of you and umption

USB-C will replace everything eventually.
I imagine something like a Raspberry Pi 400 with a full fledged USB-C port so it can connect to a monitor via USB-C and then the monitor has USB and ethernet ports, so some peripherals are connected to it already… It’s exciting… And confusing…
