Gregory's Server@wonka @SebastienK indeed! but the fact that apple still uses it for the iphone is ridiculous, especially since they know it's a bad connector because they don't use it for anything but the iphone!

 @SebastienK As if Apple was the only manufacturer of high-speed USB-C cables... @SebastienK Why do you blame that kind of asshattery on the EU though? It's clearly Apple's fault! @SebastienK You have a very close horizont if you only see that. USB-C is certainly the more future-proof option than Micro USB. Just look at how many devices there are already that charge via USB-C and do not bring their own wall wart! @wonka I have stopped using cables for charging for a while now. USB-C is good for real work. Charging is just a nice feat. Every iPhone sold with USB-C will have wireless charging. Wireless charging is the universal charger. No cable insertion needed. Every brand uses the same standard. Even Apple uses it @zegolem @SebastienK Wireless charging has high losses. I will not use it unless a wired connection absolutely is not possible. @zegolem @SebastienK Also, USB PD is specified to up to 240 Watts now - I want to see you do that much wirelessly. @SebastienK Well, OK, I do not care about your wailing anymore. π€· @zegolem @SebastienK @wonka huh, didn't know that... well, point still stands, these devices should've switched to usb-c long ago, i think consumers have been giving enough money to apple for proprietary cables that haven't had a reason to exist for years now... @SebastienK So that you only need USB-C for all devices. Not Lightning, and Lumberg, and TomTom, and Flurb, and Gnorf, and several different barrel plugs, and and and. @SebastienK By the way, if Apple wasn't so tight-assed, Lightning could have had the place USB-C has now. π€· @zegolem |
@zegolem itβs used for keyboards, mice, remotes, AirPodsβ¦ . All those become obsolete. The consumer loses and more profits for Apple π€·π½ββοΈ @wonka
