Can't remember the last time I actually used a usb port to transfer data.
External drives and sometimes adb are the only time when I'd even connect via USB
Macbooks literally run their entire peripheral ecosystem through USBC.
Do external displays and docks count?
On phones and tablets, I usually go for wired connections for video because I'm almost always doing it while traveling, where wireless options either will never work or have some PITA yak shaving setup required before they do. If you can plug in an HDMI cable, you know that it will work.
Do they need usb 3.0 speeds tho?
I don't do it often, but when I need to I don't want to fuck around. Spent an afternoon just a few weeks ago reinstalling star wars kotor and a few hundred mods on the android port. That would have been even more annoying trying to transfer the mods wirelessly
