Also amusing to me, this is the same thing people were talking about when Apple moved from the 30 pin connector to lightning.

And Firewire to USB, and VGA to DVI to Displayport to HDMI, and...

I'm just surprised that apple did the thing everyone wanted: switch to a standard. And now bam, nope this is horrible. Its time for usb c, sucks now but it'll pass. Be more worried about usb c incompatibility more than usb c.

The coolest thing about USB-C is that it's the same in both ends...

Doesn't mean all USB-C is compatible with all USB-C sadly. So we'll have lots of my $BRAND cable didn't work with $OTHERBRAND problems.
