Probably. Prior to the touchbar model I could:
Charge, drive 2 displays, use a YubiKey, connect to a wired network and have a spare USB for charging my phone or connect a Time Machine backup.
Without daisy chain or a hub that's no longer possible.
I know I'm an outlier but still, new laptops offer less and less ports, including my Lenovo T580, and that's a shame for some.
- dkonofalski 7y ago>Prior to the touchbar model Wait... why can't you do that anymore? I charge, drive 2 displays, and have several chargers and USB devices plugged in just via the 4 USB-C/Thunderbolt ports. Is your complaint the number of ports or the fact that they're USB-C? It sounds like the specific benefit was only the variety of ports unless I'm reading this wrong...

- dkonofalski 7y agoI did not. You can still use those with a USB-C computer. I still don't see where the issue is.
