Headphone jacks are increasingly niche.

And while it annoyed me the better part of a decade ago? I don’t care anymore. Everything (even apple… soon?) uses usb C. So I have a simple C->headphone (I always forget how many mm that jack is) adapter for my cheap earbuds and a better C->headphones+charging for my tablet. And I was genuinely shocked when, on a travel day, I just kept my cable plugged into that dongle the entire time rather than only using it with my tablet as opposed to my steam deck (which does have a jack)

And I acknowledge I am a weirdo because I still use a cable even with my ANC headphones because I am lazy and don’t want to learn how to swap devices in bluetooth. Most people just use their wireless earbuds for everything.

Because… it isn’t even like most phones ever had a good DAC anyway.

Ten years ago, this pissed me off massively. Now? It is genuinely easier to find bluetooth earbuds than decent wired ones on Amazon. And you are looking at something like them being about the same price anyway.
