I used to be quite hardline on this, however now I use a portable DAP (Hiby R5 Gen 2) for my music. It has a class A amplifier, balanced output, a Terabyte of storage, and streams Qubuz Hi-Res. So I don't use my phone now.

I wish my tablet had a headphone jack. I have to use an adapter but I would want one on there by default. I haaaaate bluetooth headphones. Too much delay. And no, I don't have a phone.

Mine has one but even though I don't use it, it's good to have it for emergency situations when your bluetooth headphones are out of battery.

My phone (Pixel 6) doesn't have one but I wish it did. I still use an aux cord to listen in my car or to plug into my amplifier when I practice on headphones, so I have to use 3.5mm to USB-C converter dongles. I also can't charge my phone while using an aux cable now which is annoying.

It would be nice if it did, but my newer Bluetooth headphones are a joy, so it doesn't matter most of the time.

Yes

I'm probably the odd one out, and I used to be infuriated by the idea that my phone didn't have a headphone jack, but I got used to not having it.

I only use wireless headphones now, and I have a USB-C adapter I can use in case I do want to use an aux port. Have been tempted to buy some decent "Chi-Fi" wired earphones, I do miss higher quality sound.

I use bluetooth earbuds for work - I used wired buds up until this job, but I ended up constantly ripping them out of my ear by accident, UUUUGGGGHHHHHH. But I would still be using wired if I could. My husband also uses wireless earbuds at work, but needs a headphone jack to play music through his ancient work truck. He had an adapter while he had a phone w/o a jack, but then he couldn't charge his phone while listening to music. I know there are splitters out there, but we didn't end up buying one, and he just replaced his phone with a new one that includes a headphone jack.

I personally don't use sound/videos not at home

Mine doesn't have a headphone jack but Xiaomi did provide a Type C to Headphone jack adapter in the box. It would have been better to have it embedded in the phone itself. But now, what happens is I don't use the phone while it's charging. So good enough for me.

I bought a used phone and needed good low light camera for documentation of network closets, so I had to compromise on the wish for a headphone jack. Now I got an adapter that I use at home to use my headphones for calls. On the go I have noise cancelling equipment that uses bluetooth anyway. It would still be more handy to have the jack built in.

I bought a new smartphone a few months back and I didn't realize it doesn't have a headphone jack until recently. That was the first instance when I wanted to use it. But it turned out that BT was supported in that case too.

I absolutely see how removing jack is a problem for some people, but there is also a significant group which couldn't care less. I haven't used wired headphones in years.

Yes unless both my phone and headphone support LE Audio.

I have an adapter that splits so I can charge my phone while I talk on a headset while working. Does that count?

Rarely. I do have a pair of Buds Live tho

AirPods >5y now.
