    I curse the designers of the USB-A standard to not make it flippable just to save a few cents during manufacturing.

    Think of the collective time humanity wasted doing the flips.

      Eh, usb-c is great, but not for everything.

      Type a is great for things that stay in place for long periods of time, 3.5mm headphone jack is good and simple. Rj45 is a great connector for it’s purpose

      USB-C is amazing for portable devices, or connectors that are inserted/removed often and require high bandwidth or power delivery

        Honestly, I’m hoping it would replace all peripherals (keyboard to monitor) but monitor might be a long way from happening.

          I have currently everything on usb-c on laptop, mainly since I’m using the built-in dock on display, and I love it.

          On desktop though I’m happy with what it got, since I’m never messing with those cables
