Maybe we even have the same one :)

Mine's this one:

j5create USB4 8K Slim Hub - 8K60/4K144 HDMI, 1 x USB-C 10Gbps with PD charging, 1 x USB-C 10Gbps, 2 x USB-A 10Gbps | Compatible with MacBook, Windows Laptops (JCH453)

I bought it because unlike many other USB hubs, the host connection is USB4 / Thunderbolt 4, instead of just USB3 for the host connection.

> Ultimate Connectivity: JCH453 combines the latest USB4 controller with Thunderbolt 4 and USB compatibility, ensuring seamless connectivity with various devices. Experience the power of multiple ports in one hub.
