(No, just keep on. These kinds of regulations were long overdue)

    What’s superior about not using a dongle?

    Back when that was how I went around, the break point in the cable saved me a few times.

      How would it not be? -I don’t need a dongle that I can lose. (You might never use your earphones with another device, but I do, so the dongle will need to get unplugged from the earphones at some point) -I can use earphones at the same time as charging. -A dongle is one more thing that can break. -I’m not stressing a port with something that it really wasn’t meant for

      Also, when I have a headphone jack, I still have the option to use a dongle or bluetooth, so nothing is lost by having the port

        I always just put it in my pocket. They make passthrough charging dongles, never had an issue with one.

        How do you plug something not designed for your port into it though?
