Heavy cables are just stupid no matter the port used, or dongle. Dongles do not brake faster than normal ports do. Normal ports do internal damage just the same way. “Cause disconnects”, only if damaged.

I don’t have problems with my dongle (which I had to use like only 2 times a year, anyway)

Well, if you use such legacy style of connection to projector, I may agree, if it was not that easy to upgrade the cable to have a c to hdmi adapter mounted all the time.

I connect wireless to my projectors, like, everywhere.

Never used more than 4 ports at the same time… you did?

You don’t have less I/O…

They re-added out of pressure from pros

All you need is a travel dongle with hdmi displayport some USB-A and ethernet (If you really need that, tho) for me laptop screen on the go is good enough, have no usb-A devices (and those who have are upgraded to C using permanent usb legacy adapter mounted on the cable) and on the go, wifi/hotspot is good enough.

At home, ethernet and USB A are connected through the usb C 4k monitor.

I would prefer 10x USB C than that shit, lol

Or surface, or hp, or …

You monitor is the dock. Just a simple USB c 40gb/s connecting monitor and PC and everything is connected to the monitor, like mouse, keyboard, cam, etc.

I like it more like this.

Or just permanently put a c to a adapter on the USB cable of the mouse?

Or just a little dongle with both of these ports which can be plugged in on any usb-c on any side?

🤷🏻you are even more free these days without even realising, I never saw any laptop at any age having more than one ethernet.

Useless old school holes? I am glad they did.
