I'm using USB-C to 3.5" adapters, they cost next to nothing and allow me to use a much wider pool of phones. Some even come with a USB-C passthrough so you can charge it or connect other stuff simultaneously.

pretty soon the port wears out too then if you fart next to the dongle the connection stops

I believe in voting with your wallet. Giving money to companies that practice anti-consumer behaviour sends them the signal that you're okay with what they're doing. I'm not okay with it so I'm sticking to my principles.

I never bought a device with non-removable battery either and now thanks to EU it seems that I don't ever need to either.

I also bought an older model MacBook because it had a better keyboard aswell as HDMI port and SD-card reader. Now the newest models have them again because enough people like me refused to buy the inferior models.
