Or a headphone jack, yes, a large number of people have wireless earbuds....but the audio quality off them isn't amazing, and goddammit I wanna plug my really nice headphones in, or connect to a stereo without needing to use a Bluetooth dongle or....or....fuck....idk....just stupid. The big players saw apple cutting all that away(barring expandable memory, they never had that as far as I know) and said fuck what people want, apple can dictate what their customers want, and we want to too! And then getting a device with enough on-board storage is hundreds of extra capitalism tokens. It's a fuckin mess....
It's sad that because most people dont care about these things we dont get to enjoy them either.
