Bluetooth is SO FAR FROM GREAT. it is, in fact, terrible.
Wont connect to the right’profile’
Connects to wrong device,
Misprioritizes devices,
Confuses which audio sink you want
Will not reliably remember preferences and settings. Connects as telephone whether you want it to or not. Connects automatically w/out asking making you fiddle with settings every time. Requires menus/screens and setting shit just to function…as opposed to, say ‘just plug it in’
Broadcasts an easily exploitable signal to everyo e nearby
Constantly needs battery/charge
Has to ‘talk’ to you to function
Very little if any standardization for pairing/trusting across MFG companies… i mean stop me anytime to let me know how flippi g “great” it is. We traded dead simple, reliable, universal tech for this deeply flawed, frustrating garbage just so we could say “look, no cables!!”
Please. Like 5 people still use headphone jacks
Bluetooth is great
Just great. https://media.ccc.de/v/39c3-bluetooth-headphone-jacking-a-key-to-your-phone

No, bluetooth is not great. Just because you don’t use something doesn’t mean other people are like you.
