USB-C cables that don't fucking suck?

Every USB-A to USB-C cable fucking sucks. It's either too thick, too stiff, too short, too long, too thin, has a weird box around the connector (looking at you, PS5 cable) or some other fucking problem.

Someone has to make ones that aren't dogshit, right? For stuff that absolutely needs 3.1 or 3.2 connectivity, I've been buying those Anker Powerline ones, but those are incredibly inflexible and way too thick. Anyone know anywhere else to get them? You'd think people would make nice braided cables you could buy that aren't super stiff like the Amazon Basics ones.

have you looked for an adapter rather than a full cable? might be a better solution there

maybe I'm missing something, but I feel like this isn't too hard a problem to solve.

I've been using these for years, they keep working
