USB-C hubs and my slow descent into madness - Dennis Schubert

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Anker is in fact mentionned in that article as the resell products from china company that it is. You might be going "there's nothing wrong with that" since they do have additional staff and put in work for aditionnal quality control, but ultimately their products aren't really better than shovel hardware you can find on AliExpress.
(Note that the autho basically only has a problem because he uses a Mac and the realtek chip in all those cheap (actually $100 when dropshipped to you nice) hubs says it's Mac compatible but it isn't.
