idk unfortunately i’m definitely in the group of people who is fine with a tiny bit of compromise for a bit of thinness, i’d rather have a slightly thinner laptop and a couple of adapters for ethernet/displayport etc

it’s when companies exclude ports when they clearly could have fit them that annoys me, like modern windows laptops without headphone jacks, or when laptops only have micro sd slots when a fullsize sd card reader is essential for using 95% of cameras made in the past like 15 years, probably motivated purely by cost cutting

i don’t use a macbook but a macbook pro with a charge port + 3x usb 4 + hdmi + sd is in my opinion almost the perfect compromise
