Why is there no USB-C (female) to mini-B (male) adapter? (feddit.ch)

I converted my cable park to a USB-C cable (male to male) and lots of adapers (the short sort you can keep in a box) years ago. Yet i have still some devices with a mini-B female port.

Only thing i found online are cables and everything else. Heck, there's even mini-DP > C and ethernet > C in that form factor.

To clarify, i look for something like this but mini-B instead of micro.

edit: Region is Swiss, Europe.

editedit: thanks guys, found one.

Search term "mini usb2 to usbc" on amazon UK came back with a good list... brands easyult and nfhk. No clue how good they are or if they would be available in EU/CH.

Thanks, but amazon can't deliver them to switzerland. None of them, it's crazy.

Maybe aliexpress? They typically have global shipping

Good idea. Amazon wants my phone number. :-/

if you're not too far from one of the borders you could maybe make it delivered in an Amazon box and pick it up there?
