Or just get a good USB-C cable for $5

This is more for accessories with lightning connectors.

That said probably cheaper adapters will appear or maybe already exist ๐Ÿค”.

MUCH cheaper adapters do exist. Some of them may or may not burst into flames, YMMV.

$30 is likely overpriced, but $2 is going to be way underpriced for what should be a smart adapter with some safety circuit inside... and gold plated copper connectors, not just copper plated aluminum... so pick wisely.
