    It WAS a good cable about 6 years ago when even flagship phones still used micro USB. I would have killed for lightning on my old android phone. However, usb c just takes the cake, every cake. It has its own problems but the tradeoffs are miniscule compared to lightning.

      This was a crucial step in Apple’s journey into becoming a trillion dollar company. Dongles.

    Lightning was a good cable. It’s just that Apple didn’t improve it any for a decade and never opened it up so it could have been a standard.

    It’s smaller and more durable. It’s just slow and proprietary.

    Lightning is/was actually pretty great. Also remember that it was introduced before USB-C even existed.

    Not fair. It was a great cable. It came out when everyone else was using mini and mico usb which both sucked hard ass. They weren’t reversible, and they broke easily.
