This isn't about IOS being superior to Android. This is about Apple doing anti-consumer practices and getting called out for it.
The downvote count is insane because they are talking out of their arse and drinking the Apple propaganda.
USB-C "caught up" with lightning a decade ago.
If it was such an awesome connector, they would still also use it in their MacBooks.
If Apple really cared about their customers getting the better connector, they would have changed it on the Iphone at the same time they did on the MacBooks.
But they didn't, because Iphone is their cash cow, so they wanted to scrape as much money from their users as possible, until the EU forced them to change.
