New mac Mini to Apple thunderbolt 1 monitor

Hello all,

Can someone please asist as I am having all sorts of problems. Recently bought a new, 2021 mac mini and trying to connect it with my old Apple Thunderbolt 1 display. Can't find any adaptors that say thunderbolt to HDMI or Thunderbolt/USB 4. The closest I have found from Amazon is a mini-display port to HDMI. Would that work? Does Apple have something I can use?

Thank you in advance for any assistance you can give.

Be well,

Lou

I use this adapter with my M1 MacBook Air and it works

flawlessly:

Anything other than a Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 1/2 adapter will simply

not work.
