This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

There's more to it than just the cables, there's all of the companies that integrate with their phones. There are a ton of accessories for iPhone, and they probably have contractual obligations to maintain compatibility for some amount of time.
and they all pay for the licensed lightning cable, they would love for nothing more than using USB C instead, apple doesn't even have to stop producing lightning cables. They just have to stop using them on phones.
This is like the equivalent of not being able to manufacture a car because you slightly changed the design of how the transmission mounts to fix the problem where the transmission fucking grenades itself all because "well maintenance is hard"
