USBC and lightning are both still digital connections, meaning you have to have a digital-to-analog converter un the headphones themselves, making them more expensive and more complicated.
Also, you can't charge and listen at the same time (without an additional cable).
3.5 mm is the "old reliable" - I will never buy a phone without both a 3.5mm jack and a MicroSD card slot.
Depends on the Quality setting and version of jpeg. Even the original jpeg, on high quality, will result in little to no data loss. IIRC, Jpeg can even do lossless, with the only caveat being that it doesn't save alpha channels (but screenshots don't need to have transparency, anyway). Newer versions of jpeg, such as jpeg-2000 (and the much less broadly supported jpeg-XL) have much better compression and provide higher image quality at lower file size.
"jpegification" or "Deep-frying" only really occurs with the original jpeg at low quality settings.
Love my G31 as a daily driver and Music player. Does all it needs to, and for a very reasonable price. Also, has a headphone jack and an SD card slot :)
Afaik... Swift is a musician first and foremost. She might be the wealthiest musician on the planet - but i find it hard to equate the scale of her "evildoings" to people like Bezos or the average oil company.

Holy wall of text. Well explained :)
Mix ketchup, mayo and throw in some diced onion. It's very popular with fries in Germany "Pommes Spezial".
That first sentence made me physically recoil. What is wrong with you? Go seek help, for all of our sakes.
Thanks for posting this. We knew this for a long time, didn't we? How did Trucks ever win out in long range land-based transport?
I think they didn't see the cursive, it's probably hard to make out on a small screen.
Do you license every comment of yours? If yes, why? Tbh i'm just curious
Fair. Although I have more to say.
Maybe this connector from the 50s has survived this long because it's perfect (or at least really good) at its job? There is a reason why all professional equipment uses analog connections.
I agree that at a price point of 6€ or 20€, it doesn't make much of a difference for most headphones - although I'd like to mention that for 20€, you're already in the price range of cheap IEMs ("In-Ear Monitors"), which are really good in terms of price to sound quality.
If you want reliable earbuds with good sound quality and affordable price (between 20€ and 100€), IEMs are a really good choice.
Also, their cables are pretty much always robust and replaceable, so if one does break, you won't have to buy new headphones altogether.
The only "caveat" with IEMs is that they exclusively have analog connections (3.5mm). I think that's a good thing, though: the manufacturer has more budget for better cables and audio drivers this way.
I hope I could shed some more light on this :)
