I’m all for the switch to USB C but Lightning as a connector is objectively better. It’s smaller, more durable, feels better to use and even looks better.
If it hadn’t been proprietary, it would have pretty much been the perfect connector.
Edit: hey guys instead of mindlessly downvoting without saying anything, I’d love to hear your point of view, I’m always open to changing my mind.
The biggest issue with it, was its data transfer limitations compared to usb c standards. Though, if it weren’t proprietary, then it could have been made better in that area.

Lightning breakes all the time, not very durable
Downvoted because standards are more important than slight technical advantage locked away from other companies’ usage.
Also you’re not being “mindlessly” downvoted. There are good reasons to be annoyed by this same shit argument we’ve heard for…a decade?

We learned a while ago there is no point to discuss with appletards.
It is. Case closed.
Edit: Also it would not have been the perfect connector since the supported bandwidth is absolutely pathetic.
Good thing I’m only talking about the connector then, not its performance.
