On a recent post, there were a lot of comments, which said that they were missing the headphones on newer mobile devices.

How many actually use the headphone jack?

I ask, because I have one on my phone, since I really wanted one, but I rarely use it. Like Tops 1/Month.

I would if I had one, I use a lightning adapter with wired headphones

I have an older car, and I use the aux cord and headphone jack every day.

Current phone: Never, because it doesn't have one.

Last phone: Also never, because I had decent Bluetooth headphones.

Phone before that: All the time, but broke several sets of earbuds from snagging on things and getting frayed.

Genuinely can't be arsed to wear a piece of wire down my clothes like I'm a small child with some fucking mittens on a string. Could not give two fucks about the 3.5mm jack dying out.

Curious why mods don't remove posts like this? Seems like some cleanup is needed on this Com.
