Encountering an irritating number of devices that are charged/powered via a USB-C port but that don’t work with a USB-C pd charger (only with a USB-C to USB-A cable).
Bonus irritation: a device with a USB-C port that works with a PD charger only if the cable is plugged in one orientation, but will work in either orientation if connected to a USB-A charger. (A Phillips rechargeable pocket work light).
I’m hard pressed to think of another “standard” that has as many incomprehensible and unpredictable ways things can be incompatible as USB-C.
@mattblaze @koehntopp USB-C "the connector to end all connectors" - see EU charging "law" just for one example - when you overload one connector with so many purposes and variations, it will become a monster. "keep it simple" changed into "make it look simple".
