I have several Anker 100 watt USB C cables scattered throughout my house and they've all lasted a over a year now with no signs of any issues.

Apple's cables work fine too but they of course eventually get worn down at the ends and eventually need to be replaced. I also tried Aukey, but their cables stopped working for me after a month or two. I had them replaced under warranty twice and all three times it stopped working within a month or two.

So at least for cables I use with higher wattage adapters I exclusively use Anker & Apple USB-C cables now.

IME Anker cables didn't work that well with frame.work throwing it into a power negotiation(?) loop. Basically udev was eating 100% of a cpu switching to and from battery if it were to discharge below 80%.

Apple macbook air cables have been rock solid though.
