We used to have earbuds that don’t need to be charged because they had a headphone jack, didn’t get lost so easily because they had a cord attached to a headphone jack, never lost the bluetooth connection because they had a headphone jack, and they cost less because they had a headphone jack. https://bsky.app/profile/daisyfm.bsky.social/post/3l3mfjc6sn62k
It doesn’t live rent free in mine, but literally everything you said also applies to wired, which was also a massive nothing-burger.
The nothing burger you’re talking about? Nobody ordered that one, we were all eating the other nothing burger, not particularly needing, or wanting a second order, hold the wires.
