Nobody's pissed at Apple for going USB-C. I think everyone knows they're the future.
But people are pissed that they dropped the other ports in the short term.
You can argue about the future ad nauseum, but people want a computer that is present-friendly and future-resistant without a lot of inconvenience. Inconvenience is highly subjective, because I see a lot of people here are willing to put up with dongles on Macs instead of having to switch to an operating system or laptop form factor they don't like. That's perfectly fine.
While I get a Mac lover isn't going to switch to PC over Apple's changes, it's worth noting that just about every other PC who makes a laptop with USB-C/TB3 offers dongle-free legacy ports. The ones that don't have legacy ports tend to include some free dongles in the box.
