While I understand that others have different priorities with phones, I've never quite understood why Lemmy is so enraged by the absence of a headphone jack...
I prefer wireless headphones. When I had wired headphones I used to regularly yank my phone off the counter when cooking, or try to walk away from my desk while tethered by a cord.
If I did ever need to use wired headphones, using an adapter isn't that big a deal to me. Although I'd probably have to use a magnetic adaptor so that when I inevitably forget that I'm connected to it and walk away, my phone/entire desktop doesn't come with me.
It's absolutely a personal preference. Some people don't care, others do. A 3.5mm headphone jack is a requirement for any phone that I buy along with a micro SD card slot. It's getting more and more difficult to find devices that meet those requirements but that's a choice that I make. Along with unlockable bootloader and the ability to be rooted, but that's a whole different issue.
3.5mm headphone jack just works with anything you plug into it and it has for decades. No pairing, no charging headphones or earbuds, no latency, better sound quality, no having to choose between charging the device and having audio output OR find the right OTG dongle.
A lot of people don't care about this at all and that's fine. But for those of us who do I really hope that these options don't disappear entirely just to sell more Bluetooth earbud garbage and cloud storage subscriptions.

I agree that the difference is small, but it feels like enshitification and an anti consumer choice to me and that frustrates. Typing this from my jackless phone 🤳. I have DAC dongles everywhere.

Having kids. We have zero desire to have kids so everyone can just stop trying to convince us.
electric cars.
I know that there's one benefit that they do help with the carbon footprint, but factories (law-exempted for some reason), personal jets, yachts and cruise ships make me feel this personal contribution is moot.
there's also the fact that most electric cars are shipped with privacy invasive data collectors most of use didn't ask nor pay for.

Whatever flash in the pan has "games" pissed off today.
They're easily outraged by any perceived slight, easily demonized/lionized by the media, often incredibly misguided, entirely without consideration for the bigger picture, and usually have 0 long-term impact follow-through or apology when whatever they were upset about gets rectified.
