What would happen with circular connectors?

The problem Usb-c has is when dust builds up inside the port from your pocket etc. 😅 (For some reason seems to be more susceptible to it in my experience than usb micro)

USBC is awesome but it is backwards. Devices should just have holes and the pin should be on the cable. I guess apple blocked that because lightning is like that.

Yeah, hopefully next gen usb can do that in 2034

Or maybe we could switch to a combo of optical data and wired power with a barrel connector that has an optical connector in the middle.
