    i sincerely do not believe people who complain about this are fucking real, i have NEVER met a single person in real life who has ever had any struggle with USB beyond identifying the connector (which, you know, isn’t a problem now that USB C is mandatory).

      I would agree for basic charging and data transmissions, which probably cover 90% of use cases. But as soon as you want to use a USB peripheral that actually requires a specific feature of a modern USB version to work, things get messy really quickly.

      I think I’m real.

      I have a portable Thinkvision display I wanted to use with my Mac Studio over a longer cable, finding the right one was an epic pain in the ass.
