Superdrive useless with iMac 2021?

Is my superdrive useless now that I have bought an iMac M1 2021? Guidance seems to suggest you can't connect via a hub, and of course there is no 'standard' USB port on the desktop! I bought a 4-port Type C 3.0 hub which works for other stuff (e.g. external hard drive) but my Superdrive is 'offline'.

Any help appreciated!

iMac 21.5″ 4K, macOS 10.15

You need to plug it directly into one of the ports using a USB to USB-C adapter such as…

No Hubs or Docks.
