You don't have a USB port of some kind?

Macbooks from 2019 have 4 thunderbolts 3 ports and 1 mini jack. And that's all.

If you want to power the device, you do it through a thunderbold. If you want to connect a USB that is not USB C, you have to use adapter and/or USB HUB. So you would have to connect to your USB through adapter/hub, and if for some reason whatever installer wouldn't support this you would be screwed (but I guess most of the time it would be doable, just inconvenient).
