Yes, for me, fraying hasn’t been an issue since they switched from MagSafe to USB-C. Considering a 2014 MagSafe nearly started a fire in my house (Apple had nothing to say about that, but did replace the cable), it’s been welcome.

After seeing literally dozens of frayed Apple power cords, I think the real problem was actually the relative softness of the old cable sheathing, not the magsafe part itself. The new USB-C cables are quite noticeably stiffer.
