So far so good for me. Please share what you need on the end of a lightening cable that can't be found.

More than 30 watts of power, more than USB 2.0 data rate, etc...

These apple fanatics are so funny when they keep insisting that their shitty 2010 tech is bleeding edge.

Nobody is insisting the cutting edge technology from 10 years ago is superior tonday’s. I’m arguing that whatever company should be free to choose I/O interfaces without supervision.

But you were given specific examples of where your preferred tech falls short of others - examples that you asked for - and you chose to ignore them and switch to a different argument. That's kinda rude.

Sorry about that. Yes USB-2 is the limiting factor. I don't think it is quite as bad as you stated. They made 2 statements one about the tech being 13 years old. I agreed that the tech was 13 years old. Admitting that I felt I was implying the limits of the lightening port were dated and had technical limits.

The limitations are not a matter of Lightning being old. USB-C is almost as old.

USB-C didn't exist in a usable ratified standard at the introduction of Lightening. 4 years is a long time in tech.

If you would've read the EU law, they considered wireless charging, but at the moment the landscape is changing very rapidly. They'll let the industry collaborate first, but if Apple or some other company won't play the ball, EU will step in again.
