Definitely the M1 Macs, as DNSB has stated. When I finally upgrade my Mac, I'll be scrounging around for an old USB 2.0 hub unless Kobo or Apple updates things. However, I have heard that PC owners have had difficulties, too. It seems that the motherboards that support USB 3.1 and 4 are the culprits, but I have only heard grumblings. Couldn't point you to a specific site that explains it. Still, upgrades leaving legacy devices in the past is all part of the modern computer experience. It's one reason I'd like to see Kobos support USB-C connections, but I don't want to start another flame war.
