Earbuds (reddthat.com)

We used to have earbuds that don't need to be charged because they had a headphone jack, didn't get lost so easily because they had a cord attached to a headphone jack, never lost the bluetooth connection because they had a headphone jack, and they cost less because they had a headphone jack. https://bsky.app/profile/daisyfm.bsky.social/post/3l3mfjc6sn62k

What do you mean used to?

That's still what I use. I have seen people using the wireless ones though, they seem quite popular at the moment.

I'm just not sold on the idea of earphones that have planned obsolescence built in, and require Bluetooth.

My current earphones are fab, I've been using them for 10 years now, and they plug in to everything and work with everything.

Why downgrade to something that'll have a ruined battery after 2 years, doesn't work with most stuff, and let's also not forget sometimes doesn't work at all because the battery might need charging.

My wired earphones have not once refused to work for any reason, period.
