Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
6. Defend your opinion
This is a bit of a mix of rules 4 and 5 to help foster higher quality posts. You are expected to defend your unpopular opinion in the post body. We don't expect a whole manifesto (please, no manifestos), but you should at least provide some details as to why you hold the position you do.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

How often are you really charging your phone while also using headphones, and do you really think that usecase is widespread enough to warrent an extra connection?
This seems to be the common reason which really baffles me. I just replaced my 5yr phone with a refurbished phone. My battery was at 75% health and I would just charge in the morning or night. I feel like charging devices when not being used is pretty easy, though I guess if someone is chained to their phone 24/7 it may be a bit harder to accomplish.
Literally daily
In this case you can invest 7 bucks in a good splitter.
I have two and they have had endless connection issues. Also, the DAC in splitters is terrible, so this requires a USB-C splitter followed by an external DAC. It's pretty unwieldy.
Also, on my previous phone without a jack the USB-C port started having charging issues after a couple of years due to wear. I'd be less annoyed about it if they had multiple USB-C ports, but a single port device is a bad idea in general.
It's >0, which is all that matters IMO.
If you’re using an older battery (which we should be as much as possible) then plugging in is needed more frequently. Upgrading every two years is not good for the environment, and certainly not good for the child slaves mining the parts for our batteries.
Wireless charger.
Now that's what's up. Was thinking the exact same thing. Non-issue.
