    Why are there a gazillion articles about this?

    To be honest, for 99% of users, pretty much the only thing this means is that the probability they can charge their iPhone at their friends house without bringing their own cable increases.

      100% agree! I feel like people are flipping their lid about this and it’s completely unwarranted. I have never had any issue with using lighting cables, I’ve never wished that it was a usbc cable, and I also don’t care at all that it’s becoming usbc. It makes zero difference to me. Everyone else on the internet talks about this like it’s been the bane of their existence holding back their ability to live their full life. Not sure what I’m missing.
