iPhones for the lightning port in 2012 and I think the first usb c android was 2015ish

My point is that 11 years later people act as if this lightning port was thrust upon them RATHER than getting usb c.

They’ve been using the same connector for more than a decade now, that’s all.

Your points about apple opting to go their own route is salient and stands and I agree whole heartedly.
