There is a reason for USB-C extensions not to be part of the standard. They can be bothersome in the best case and dangerous in the worst.

I have this cable: https://www.spigen.com/products/arcwire-usb-c-to-usb-c-cable-pb2202
It’s 2 meters long, 240 watts and supports Thunderbolt 4/USB 4 (40 gbps).
I couldn’t test the 240 watts charging as I don’t have any device pulling more than 100 watts, but the Thunderbolt 4 part definitely works.
Apple sells a 3 meter Thunderbolt 4 cable (albeit limited to 100 watts of power) that isn’t optical either (I think there’s some special circuitry in the plugs though).
$90 for a cable and it’s not even braided is wild to me.
Braiding doesn’t really increase the cable quality per se though…?
It’s $90 because it has fairly thick wiring and as Margot said is likely an active cable (with a chip in the plug). It’s actually fairly cheap considering the feature set.
Braided cables are just higher quality imo because they can’t tangle easily and take a lot of effort to bend.
I prefer not braided. Both for cables and hair. More of a ponytail kinda guy myself.
You’re right. Those are active cables which I forgot to mention earlier that have special circuits that amplify signals, but are also a lot more expensive as a result.
Will I get banned if I don’t call this person Margot Robbie, because they claim to identify as a famous Hollywood actress?
I believe that Margo Robbie identifies as esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress/esteemed Academy Award nominated character actresses.
