Is it possible to drive a monitor from a hub? If the hub was Thunderbolt 3 compatible and I used a USB-C to HDMI adapter, from the hub to the monitor, would this work? The monitor in question is a Full HD (1080p@60Hz) monitor – nothing crazy.
I ask this question as I'm currently looking at a USB-C to 3 HDMI adapter however the price is pretty high – and I'm looking for a workaround. It seems that individual USB-C to HDMI cables are a lot cheaper.

This is can work, however, it depends on your personal equipment. Both my motherboard's onboard video and my Geforce RTX 2080 Ti have the ability to do what you are asking.
For example, the "Anker USB C Hub" has the HDMI port built in, as well as USB and an Ethernet port.
