Micro USB is the bane of my existence
(www.theverge.com)
But.... That image isn't micro USB?
So traumatised they couldn't even bear to look at that fragile little connector, so sad and obsolete next to USB-Chad who's stronger and more widely accepted
Looks like it's fixed on the article, must've cached the thumbnail on Lemmy at post time.
Shouldn't have ever been a mini connector though.
Best comment:
It’s an interesting article, but the title makes me think that if micro-USB ports are the banes of the author’s existence, she needs more banes in her life.
I've had 4x more USB C failures than micro (1 micro failure since 2009 and 4 C failures) and I've used micro for longer and across more devices, probably 10x more usage.
Sorry, C isn't nearly as robust. And it's supposed non-polar isn't true, I still have some cables that won't charge until they're flipped over. I have to verify a device is charging.
