Neat! I guess you’ll be advocating for whatever the next advancement in USB ports is becoming mandated as soon as it’s available, too?

Anything that reduces e-waste, yes.

Really, a brand new plug becomes available today, the EU mandates its usage and you think that reduces e-waste?

Yes. What makes you think that it has no effect on, or even increases, e-waste?

We won't need backwards incompatible advancements in this space for awhile, you seem grumpy that the EU is doing good for consumers rather than mega corporations.

I find it hard to believe that a good use of the EU’s time is regulating USB-C.

Yes! Changing plug standard every 10 years and some cables that work with everything beats alternatives.

Fuck, imagine if every devices you ever owned for last 30 years needed total of 3 different cables to connect, it would be fucking amazing.

It basically does. USB-A, USB-C, Lightning, Micro-USB.

That...doesn't cover anywhere close to everything back to 1993, which would be 30 years.

Only back to ~2010 which is exactly when the EU introduced the mandate.

Lightning was introduced in 2012 lmao. Apple used other proprietary connectors before

Stop bullshitting. 4 wouldn't even cover connectors for apple stuff
