The USB-C (female) adapters are hard to find due to technically being non-compliant. If you're interested about the reasons and some further context, I can recommend this article: https://hackaday.com/2022/12/27/all-about-usb-c-illegal-adapters/
In your specific case, it's twice as hard to find such an adapter due to MiniUSB being so uncommon these days.
Ah, so that's why the C to micro adapter to charge my old Galaxy S3 only works one side.
That's a very interesting article, thanks!
