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

Having lived through that period but absolutely never experiencing this I wonder... Could the (port on the) devices just have been shitty?

I remember crackling when turning the plug and mono when not being inserted properly, though
