Could it be that no one in the industry trusts them on standards?

Could it be that no one in the industry trusts them on standards?
- wharvle 3y agoIt's not their standard. It's in wide use on video game consoles and Android phones. The rest of the "PC" industry just hasn't moved so hard away from USB-A as they have, such that it remains the de facto PC standard for peripherals. It's largely displaced micro-usb, but not USB-A (comically, the one place it's dominated in the rest of the electronic-crap industry is where Apple lags, not the area in which they lead on its adoption)
- layer8 3y agoNo, it’s that USB-A is cheaper and “good enough”, and still more ubiquitous on the installed base of PCs and laptops.
