I've read a number of threds that talked about this problem of USBC  not  video ready.  This is a big disappointment for a lot of people -  ACER take note  --  I have USB 3.2 (Type-C) Gen 1 port.  I assume it is the same problem as the 3.1??   I am running Linux MINT 20 -  I have everything working except my second monitor.  I've seen a number of discussions on this,  none of them had a real confirmation that I am ready to move on.  I would love to know if anyone has done it especially in LINUX ...  Or do I need to return this machine?  I can't use it with 1 monitor  -- 15"  too small..  My HDMI is occupied ;  I need to go from some USB to VGA or HDMI and  end up with working monitor.  I had already bought the USBC to HDMI    doesn't  seem to work ..  thanks  alot  --  open to suggestion..
