I have two types of magsafe chargers, half of the lightning cables in the house don't work because they're clones of a proprietary standard. Monitors are connected with DVI, mini-DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort and VGA and none are older than 2008.
I'm relieved that it's like they're finally putting an end to all of the madness. My 2024 computer might offer a lot more protocols, but it finally seems like the physical form factor will be USB C—all of the physical negotiation will be done inside the computer rather than by me attaching an adapter.
