anecdotally, the adapter Apple provided me broke after about three weeks, and it seems like most of my family/friends are in similar situations

I've experienced a similar problem. I wear my headphones for about 1.5 - 2 hours per day while walking and I've found that I have to purchase a new adapter about every 45 days. I'm surprised that for the approximately $10 they charge for the adapter that they can't come up with a more durable design.

All official first-party Apple cables have a 1-year warranty. You can just take it into an Apple Store and they'll just replace it.

Most of Apple original cables are getting broken pretty much quickly. This is my experience. Why is that?
