      It’s not just limited to PC’s. USB C has a DisplayPort alternate mode and many phones and tablets support it now. I’m rather surprised manufacturers haven’t started putting USB C ports on TV’s for video input yet.

        Ah, i forgot some phones support straight displayport over usb. Still, wired display out on a phone isn’t exactly a common use case.
