 @alyx I mean apple definitely knew something was on the horizon, though, right? They're in there usb forum and these bodies never do anything fast And anyway, what do you mean "nothing was available"? Every other smartphone on the market was using micro-usb, and it was working just great. For sure, lightning's physical connector is nicer than micro-usb, but nice enough to warrant 12 years of having two competing form factors for basically the same thing? Nah 3 comments
@alyx just to check, what do you mean by "garbage"? my understanding is that on a technical level the two connectors were more or less equivalent, pretty much just usb2 with a different connector? And, like, I can go on holiday with my switch, my laptop, both of their controllers, an iPad and my phone and take literally one charger and honestly Nintendo could release a switch charger that literally gives me an orgasm every time I plug it in and I think I'd still rather just have the one same charger for everything |

@andrewt Yeah probably, and it make sense they did not wanted to wait for them either.
Nothing good enough was available, yes. Micro USB was garbage, it’s night and day with lightning.
Anyway let’s leave the conversation here, I don’t really see the point, and I can feel the tone is not shifting to a pleasant conversation.
Have a nice day, or night.
