I'm on the other side wishing peripherals would catch up and all become USB-C already. I'm tired of USB-A.

I’m glad I can plug in one port and have a dual display setup, all peripherals, speakers, ethernet, charging, etc connected at my desk in one go.

If I want to leave, unplug one thing and I’m good to go.

And everyone went ahead and purchased it anyway.

Companies always chase profit, if people would stop buying shittified products companies would stop enshittifying them.

USB-C does a lot of heavy lifting. Also, MagSafe™ is still there. A little surprised there is also a SD card slot. And a HDMI port. Not complaining about their inclusion, and I do use them regularly, but why did the dongle company give these to us?

Is this rage bait? Those are different macbooks. I think the bottom ones are pros. My current Pro M2 has HDMI and magsafe. My M1 (Air?) is like the top one, but is not in fact a pro and therefore does not provide as many ports.

I actually prefer the standardization here. Sick of having 2 boxes of different cords.

Problem: This is what happens when you pick Apple.

Problem: this is what happens when Apple is the trendsetter, then whether you personally chose it doesn't matter.

The annoying thing is they're not even that much thinner. They've just reshaped the edge to make it look like there isn't room for real ports.
