Review on 🔌 Cable Matters USB C Multiport Adapter: Dock your MacBook Pro or Dell XPS with Thunderbolt 4/USB4/Thunderbolt 3 Port Compatibility, HDMI and VGA Connectivity, USB 3.0, and Ethernet in Sleek Black Design by Joe Pettigrew

I like the Thunderbolt 3/USB C situation. All ports work as advertised (although monitors over 1080p with HDMI have not been tested). My only complaint is that the Ethernet and USB ports often don't initialize when I connect for the first time. See below. My typical experience is: Plug the VGA, discrete USB 2 hub, and Ethernet cable into the Cable Matters adapter, then plug the Cable Matters adapter into the laptop's USB C/Thunderbolt 3 port. HP Specter x360 Notebook (Late 2016). USB and/or Ethernet are not recognized after connection. Unplug the Cable Matters adapter and plug it back in (do not change anything). Everything works. I'm not sure why, but that's my experience with this thing. It could be a driver issue, but I haven't found any drivers to update (and I've checked my laptop's TB3 drivers; they're fine).
