- 🤔 One of Apple’s most famous accessories seems to have been discontinued
- 👋 The Lightning to 3.5mm jack adapter has sold out in the US
- 🌎 It’s also not available in other countries
- 🎧 The adapter was introduced in 2016 when Apple removed the headphone jack from the iPhone 7
Because, after all the crybaby tantrums, it turns out that nobody really wanted a headphone jack, they just wanted to be whiny cunts. This is the proof.
Go on and throw a tantrum and downvote. The proof is here. Everyone who pissed their pants complaining about this was wrong. Nobody gave a shit in the end other than for their own ability to whine and complain.
Meanwhile, all of the adults in the room just moved to Bluetooth. Most of us did it years before this change. And that’s why they remove the headphone jack. That’s why everyone else is doing it too.
Imagine simping for a 3 trillion dollar company that did this for the sole purpose of making more money on wireless earbuds. SMH.
The fact that it sold out proves that no one wants it?
You can sell out on anything, no matter how unpopular it is, if you don’t make enough of them. How many of these things did they actually make?
For those not hallucinating, the headline and article says “discontinued”. Not “sold out”.
Apple does not discontinue products that are popular. The obvious conclusion is that nobody wanted this bullshit.
It says “sold out” and “discontinued”. The latter is currently just speculation.
Speculation, according to you. You are speculating, and that’s pretty sad.
Speculation in the sense that the article says it’s "suggested’, and the source cited is “Mac Rumours”.
Not sure why you’re being so weird about it.
The article summary and the article both say “sold out”?
Would you actually die if you failed to make a shitty, worthless argument? Would your ego actually collapse if you just didn’t act like an asshole?
Sir, that’s a mirror.
My phone has a jack. It’s why I bought it. I use a pair of corded earbuds for calls and music.
Why be all Joe Rogan about people who want a headphone jack? What’s it get you to calm people whiny and children?
That’s certainly a good possibility.
Could it instead be related to them discontinuing the lightning port on all devices, and usb-c to 3.5mm adapters are available for $2 on temu so they’re not bothering? Is that alternate reality also possible?
A follow up, if wired headphones actually are unpopular, why are there pages and pages of sellers in all marketplaces selling usb-c to 3.5mm adapters?

And that’s why I still listen to music on my Zune HD instead of my iPhone.
Homies throwing a tantrum like a three year old, what prompted this?
