Most of my flashlights and rechargeable decives are micro USB still. C is superior but I'm not throwing away good electronics over a charging cable.
The question wasn't who still uses them, the question was who wants to go back.

Well in this scenario it's a genie granting a wish, so why not just wish for everything to be changed to USB-C?

Most micro USB cables that came bundled with phones or gadgets were built so cheaply that they don't even have data pins. They're a pain to sort out whenever I want to program a board.
Im also finding this with USB-C unfortunately
The one good thing about Google's Social media experiment was that guy who reviewed USBC cables to see if they actually adhered to the standards.
It's shocking how many didn't have the proper resistors or components to properly handle data and charging.
I used to keep every cable that came with any electronics. USB-C convinced me to throw away any cable I didn't specifically buy. Even my charging cables are USB4 240w 40gbps because I got so tired of guessing which cable did what. I don't even need those specs but I'll never have to wonder which cable to use.
You cannot make a statement like this and not drop a link or a brand name my guy

I'm sure the USB forum is finding ways to identify cable capabilities easy. /s
They are useful for dummies like me though! When I let my phone run out of battery while installing an update, I thought it was the end for it. But it turned out that it had just bricked itself by desperately using every single ounce of juice, so it could no longer tell the charger that it wanted to charge.
Solved by buying a dumber charger!
I recently went through my collection of Micro USB cables because I couldn't fit them into the drawer anymore. About 80% wouldn't even receive any data at all.

What kind of sadistic shit bag would actually want those defective easily broken pieces of trash back???
I want full size USB-B on all phones. Fight me
Reject USB, return to DB-25
Just give me an AGP slot on my phone. Hell, toss in a SCSI while you’re at it.

I hate when I get something that still has a micro or even worse a mini 🤮
At least mini is robust. Micro had that tiny tab that always got damaged after a year or less cuz you inevitably tried to plug that mf in backwards
Yeah, mini is the best! It is robust and has a ahape that makes it easy to figure out which way to plug it. I love it when i fet a device with a mini
has a ahape that makes it easy to figure out
May I introduce you to USB C then where it doesn't fucking matter how you plug it? I definitely prefer mini over the micro abomination but it's not "the best".

Me with my mini-usb devices rolling over in our grave
Mini at least didn't have a tendency to just break for no reason
"I want micro USB back" already breaks all three original rules at once.

"Make all new devices use micro-HDMI"
I will punch your dad in the cock
My biological father is actually mtf trans funnily enough so good luck with that
something is down there and imma punch it.
What I want is to be able to retrofit usb-c onto my older stuff.
I was kinda annoyed at having to switch, but it really is better in every way

I liked microusb. I don't know what everyone is doing with their connectors, but I never had any contact issues.
All I know is no matter how careful I was, it would end up not connecting unless it was held at exactly the right angle. I've yet to have a single USB-C connector have the issue

C is better than any other type of USB in literally every way possible. There's not even an argument to be made. Go on, I'll wait.

I love that it’s just “no falling in love” and not “no making people fall in love”
