Why do display port cable connectors have these stupid latches with a crappy button that will, even when the button is fully depresses, still stick out so that removing the connector nis always a draaaagggg…

Yeah, HDMI licensing sucks but at least you can plug and disconnect HDMI in a normal way. Dispkay port is the worst

You can buy cables without the latches on them, though idk if theyre technically to spec
That’s how my display port cables came with my monitor
This thread has me trippin out, I have 3 display port monitors and none of them have that latch.

Oh thank whatever god you believe in, that is such a blessing

I once bought a displayport to HDMI converter, plugged it in, and I could never unplug it anmore, so I just got another HDMI monitor for it

Me too. I’ve never had one with a latch before!
