With the new Macbook Pro 14" (M1 pro) can I use a dual HDMI to USB-C adapter to connect two external displays to one USB-C/thunderbolt port on my mac? With both external monitors being extended (not just mirroring my mac display)...?
Or would I need to plug one of the monitors into the HDMI port and the second via a HDMI to USB-C adapter?
2 HDMI into one thunderbolt would be much neater.

While we can't comment on the third party adapter, you can see the supported ways you can connect your new MacBook Pro to monitors here: Use an external display with your MacBook Pro.
"You can use an external display, a projector, or an HDTV with your 14-inch or 16-inch MacBook Pro. The HDMI and Thunderbolt ports on your MacBook Pro support video output.
