Isn't thunderbolt USB type C?
So a USB C hub should allow thunderbolt to connect to USB peripherals.
Or is it only thunderbolt 3 that is compatible with USB 3?
Thunderbolt 3 on optional protocol which can be carried via USB Type C
connectors. It is not the same as USB, and a USB hub will not carry it.
Thunderbolt 1 and 2 are carried via miniDisplayPort connectors and have
nothing to do with USB. Although you can plug in a docking station that has
a TB (actually PCIe) to USB chip at the other end, which will give you more
USB ports.
