I loved Pi’s, but I hate the micro hdmi connectors

    I'm not a fan but I'm guessing it's form factor?

    I had to buy a micro HDMI adapter. These video ports are slowly becoming like USB ports and it's really frustrating.

    The most annoying part I think is because I so rarely need them. All my Pis run headless, but the one time I do need direct console access I have to find the bloody adapters. Leaving them attached and unused is just asking them to get damaged.

    Rather than using micro-hdmi (which hardly anything uses), stick a pair of usb-c DP ports instead if size is an issue. at least then I don't need adapters that are ONLY needed for the Pi.
