I can see USB in terminal in /dev. However I can't see the sdcard.

What is the partition type on the card, ntfs? If it is ntfs then maybe
you need to install a helper program to be able to mount and read the
partition on the card.
For the life of me I can't get the laptop to show sdcards. I give up.
Maybe a driver issue. It's been a couple of hours.
As a workaround I have a neat little Vivitar sdcard to USB A & C
adapter. Using this I have no issues.
Thanks again for the suggestions!
