Who wants a belly rub??

Is there a recommended board/micro for something that can do USB host, including enumerating devices through hubs (which it seems like basically everything has a disclaimer including lack of support for)? Ideally something cheaper than a full on Teensy 4 or similar. The RP2040 claims to have host support, but the only things I can see describing it is adafruit managing to fake it by bitbanging its IO pins (which would work, I guess, but I'm hoping there's something more native) which seems to contradict the statement that it has host support native. This would just be for HID or other very slow devices so USB 1.1 max speed is fine. A single USB controller that does both/OTG is also fine, I don't need it to be a client. 5V native IO preferred for the rest of the circuit but I can use shifters if that makes the USB side easier.

Not specifically looking for an arudino-compatible though that'd probably be the easiest option, but this is the closest thread to "general embedded development" I know of so forgive me if I picked the wrong one.
