I have a laptop and a portable monitor I'm trying to connect together using a USB-C hub so I quickly just plug in only one cord into my laptop so I can get to work. Ideally, any non-tech savvy colleague can pick it up, plug one thing in, and just start working. I think my solutions are...

Pretty simple just for a good USB 3.0 hub that: Connects to the computer via a 2-4ft Type-C connection at least 4 Type-A ports Every hub I seem to find either has less than 4 Type-A hubs, has a cable that’s less than 1ft, or over $100, so either I’m blind or not looking in the right places.
