Before deciding for one or the other solution, you should understand their different features and first of all, know what you exactly want to achieve.
A "WiFi dongle" is an USB communication device designed to be used by a host computer with USB host capability. Parts of the network stack have to be implemented in software. Usual implementations are based on an OS, mostly Linux.

Thank you for clarifying this! Indeed, I want to go with the ESP32 since my project is just to connect to Internet and transfer packets from the board to the PC. It is a challenging project, but I am reading now to see how to do it.
Thanks again
