It's just back to my point. This change will cause me to throw away a significant amount of cables (some over 5 years old). That's a decent amount of waste.

- hotpotamus 4y agoReally? I consider myself pretty economical, but I throw out much more than a few lightning cables worth of waste in a given week (probably more on any day even). Would they even really be noticeable in your trash can?
- CubsFan1060 4y agoIf your argument is “you already throw away so much stuff that it doesn’t matter”, then what’s the point of the law in the first place?
- hotpotamus 4y agoI don't know that I had an argument, more of a question of if a couple of cables would even be noticeable as trash. I'd say my argument is purely logistical - one less cable type would be quite a boon to me personally. I have a few lightning cables that only work with exactly one device that I own - my iPhone 11. I'm quite happy with my phone, and perhaps ironically for Apple, the best way they'd have to get me to replace it would be to make a new one with a USB-C port; it's the feature I'd most like at this point. I'd also love to see touchid make a return, but I don't see that happening.
