    That’s actually impressive you’ve managed to stay in the past so long.

      What devices do you have that connect over usb-c aside from a phone? As far as I’ve seen, it’s still not common for keyboards, mice, webcams, controllers, monitors, printers, or external drives (though I’d admit drives are becoming more common, particularly for ssds). I’m honestly curious, because I feel like I’m missing out.

        All my gadgets use USB-C. Bluetooth headphones, eReader, laptop, printer, power bank, 360 camera, they all charge via USB-C.

        Hell, even my neck cooler runs off it.

          Ah, for charging, sure. The comment I was replying to seemed like they were talking about interacting/interfacing via usb-c with their desktop, not just charging, which is certainly becoming more common.

            To be clear - they also work with data transfer (well, except the power bank and neck cooler).

            I copy ebooks to my reader over USB, transfer photos off my camera, and print photos - all via USB-C.
