What adapter do I need for USB keyboards on iMac?
I need to know what kind of adapter to go from a USB keyboard to the iMac (2023) that only has Thunderbolt ports. Thank you.

The 2023 iMac's ports are Thunderbolt/USB-C.
What you need to plug the keyboard and other USB-A devices into the iMac, are USB-C to USB-A adapters.
for a few examples:

I bought these 3 from Amazon and they work as advertised: USB C to USB Adapter, Type C Thunderbolt 4 OTG Converter, USB C Male to USB 3.0 Female Adapter (3-Pack) for Apple MacBook Pro, Mac Book, iPad, Samsung Galaxy S20-S23 and More (Black/Grey/Silver). And the price was right.
I have never heard of a Thunderbolt keyboard, I suspect you are mistaking USB C with Thunderbolt. They both use the same connection type. You may need something like USB to USB C adapter. At any rate, please look on Amazon you will be able to easily find an adapter.
Thank you.
Thank you.
