      You do know that Apple was involved in the development of USB-C (about a quarter of the people working on it were from Apple) and was one of the first companies to put USB-C on a laptop (in 2015) ?

          I remember it being fully implemented on my MacBook. What exactly was missing?

        So what? They didn’t implement the port on the iPhone until recently. When did USB-C come out again? …

            Oh right, i forgot Mac’s are primarily used for making phone calls, texts, are kept in pockets when traveling, and USB-C is mainstream now so charging is a breeze, but screw iphones ami’rite?

              What does making phone calls have to do with anything?

              And who even uses a cable to charge their phone? I can’t remember the last time I used a cable to charge my phone, it’s probably years ago.

                Come on man. The talk has always been about apple not implementing the industry standard charging port on their phones. It goes back to the 30 pin days. They just want to make proprietary items for mad profits and milk it until all sheeps wake up.

                  Both the 30 pin connector and Lightning were much more capable than the ‘industry standard’ at the time they were introduced.
