If you want to use Thunderbolt 3, the devices on either end need to specifically support it. Note that in the future, Thunderbolt 3 is getting de facto rebranded as USB4 (no space). https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/09/usb4-is-coming-soon-and-will-mostly-unify-usb-and-thunderbolt/ https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/09/usb4-is-coming-soon-...
