It was a piece of shit, always. Doesn't matter if it was technically better, it was not standardized so fuck lightning cables forever. Good riddance to seriously awful bullshit rubbish

As someone who has had 2 small fires started in their cup holder with that so called "technically better" cable I will never understand how apple was ever able to market an exposed contact charging cable in the first place.

Wow, hadn't heard about that but it makes sense. Yeah this thread is way weird. So many people simping for a cable.

Doesn't matter if it was technically better

Do you approach your life with such black and white emotional reactions? Fuck nuance, details, and critical evaluations, amirite? Bad guy good guy hurrdurr.

I'm not going to argue why standards are good, that's self evident. Sorry you're blind to this.

How's this for nuance? Apple made billions of dollars by just choosing to be dicks. That's the honest truth here. Simp all you want.

[-] iegod@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Standards can be good, it's not black and white, and dismissing the technical merit outright is batshit insane. You lack critical thinking. It has nothing to do with any other meaningless term you want to throw around.

[-] SnowdenHeroOfOurTime@unilem.org -1 points 1 year ago

Right the person looking to advance society with standards can't think critically but the person who sucks off apple against logic is a brain master.

sucks off apple against logic

Your lack of assessment is even more evident. I never one mentioned the company. You did.
