    I was happy when usb c came out because it looked like it had to be a significant improvement over micro usb, in terms of longevity and reliability.

    It’s looking like it’s only a slight improvement though, which sucks.

      I only used Apple for a very short time, but their connector seemed pretty neat. Small and with satisfying haptics. Too bad they are so shitty about patents and standards.

      I have yet to have a USB c port be ripped out of a device, I have had this happen to two USB micro b devices (ultra cheap). (USB c cords die relatively frequently though)

        I’ve never had any issues with micro usb, yet no usb c on a phone survived for more than 2 years. It’s ridiculous.
