    The real failure is that the USB standard didn’t require clear and consistent markings for all cables and ports from the very beginning. You should be able to look at your cable or device and know exactly what it will support.

      Yea too many people buying something with a usbc and expect it to just work. Sorry that expensive USBC screen is not supported by your 5 year old laptop. You can either take it back or get a new laptop.

      Some people still insist that I just didn’t find the right driver.
