Power users sure, but you’re average customer doesn’t give a shit.

Because they were already gaslit by techbros.

Do you even need that many ports on your PC? Maybe one or two is perfectly fine, we can make it thinner if we don’t have to put that many on it, and otherwise here’s this dongle for expanding the base ports. BTW you’ll need backlight in your keyboard, no opt out, it’ll change your life forever, just set a less flashy color scheme if rainbow vomit RGB is too much!

Eh, you’re average user doesn’t need many ports on their device honestly.

Is that why so many dongles are being sold?

You can be certain they would be using more ports if they had any.

I work in a company that’s a couple thousand people, and the vast majority of them don’t plug anything into their laptops other than power and a phone charger.

Plugging things in to your work computer is a security risk and likely not allowed by the company if they have any sense.

Dongle is for the desk. More like dock than dongle. I don’t want to travel with a thicker laptop for ports some neckbeard on lemmy demanded that even he will never use

Sounds like it’s the Mac users who are wrong. Save some money and throw your apple shit in the trash where it belongs if you don’t like it.
