    Of all the things to criticise Apple on (and boy are there a lot of those), software support isn’t one of them, particularly in their mobile division.

      I think the rub is how they’re happy to obsolete hardware and make customers re-buy accessories. That’s tenuous here for sure.

        As I understood it, removing the headphone jack was supposed to allow for higher water resistance. I don’t know if that is completely accurate, but that was part of the pitch at the time, and seeing how other manufacturers followed suit, it seems like there must have been some design benefit to it. I get the annoyance, but at least there is some logic other than money grubbing at play.

        And the switch to USB-C was to comply with the evolving laws in Europe—can’t really blame Apple for that, and the move was probably good in the long run.

        Apple isn’t perfect, but your complaints here are a bit off base.
