2010 MacBook Pro 13" USB port connect directly to 2020 MacBook Pro 13" USB-C port?

Can a 2010 MacBook Pro 13" standard USB port be connected directly to 2020 MacBook Pro 13" USB-C (Thunderbolt?) port? I only bought the USB-C to USB ADAPTER. Do I just find a USB to USB cable?? (I don't see it at the Apple Store) Would that help in transferring files and photos directly since I was having trouble with the Migration Assistant? Or is this method incompatible somehow and no point in trying? Thanks

The Apps you mention can be transferred with the others. Or It's just as easy and slightly more reliable to download and install free Apps again.
