Some asshole designer somewhere decided that it would be a good idea that most smartphones* have nowadays only ONE USB-C port and no jack for earplugs.

I hope this person bumps their toe or step barefoot on a lego brick. Repeated times.

in the name of Dog: why?

:molotov:

(I just bought an used smartphone since my old one died and I was not aware of this horrible hazard. Maybe I am late to the party, but that does not decrease my anger)

@earthworm Usually there's a sort of dialogue of designers and stakeholders, maybe it was a demand from a non designer. Who knows?

Yeah, I was thinking about some techbro-CEO returning from Burning Man and having a great idea and the poor engineers had to comply. 😬
