@mo @nano lets be real, the only reason people like USB-C is that the connectors aren't constantly falling apart like micro and they're not difficult to plug in like USB-A.

Nobody actually cares about the weird bullshit where either end can be host. they just want a connector that isn't terrible.

@nano @snickerbockers @mo yeah USB-C isn't much besides a shape, a good shape, a shape that everybody should use.

Except for all the companies that haven't figured out how to make USB-C dongles, and force us to double dongle.

And the companies that remove headphone jacks because fuck you, consumer, purchase extra dongles for no reason.

Just an old goat

@snickerbockers @mo @nano I'm a USB geek who cares about all the weird cool bullshit, but I'm pretty sure I'm in the minority.

@snickerbockers @mo @nano USB-A is difficult to plug in? only had an issue in low light myself.
