    What makes you say that? 90% of the users don’t even connect their iPhone to a pc anymore.

      This is true. I’m a bit biased as that is what I would do. I’d say most users will not even notice. I think most of us here on lemmy are tech heads though and we would be the ones who do connect our phones to PC.

        I consider myself more techy than the average person. I’m a developer, I used to use Linux, and I used to root my Android phones.

        I stopped connecting my phones to my computers long ago. Hardly ever had a reason to do so once I stopped rooting, unless I was using the phone as a makeshift flash drive.

        Transferring to a new phone, stuff transfers over wirelessly or backups download. I’ve got everything in the cloud these days. No real need to connect to a computer.

        That said, I do think it’s frustrating if this is a limitation of the port rather than one of the cable.

        Honestly I only recently realized I don’t have a cable supporting USB Super Speed, though I detailed that in a different comment and I don’t want to repeat my self.
