I bought the Lenovo's proprietary Ethernet adapter from Lenovo directly for my Thinkpad X1 Extreme because I wanted to keep a USB-C port free. It didn't work at all under Fedora. A third-party USB-C to Ethernet adapter I bought works flawlessly.

If Lenovo's own adapter doesn't work on one of the most well supported product lines on Linux, that is not a good look.

To be very clear, I am a long time Linux user and most of the third-party stuff usually just works.
