Well, yes, that's just rude.
Lesson learned, don't lend things to that person in future.
our charger, comrade
Assuming the best intentions, they could fully intend (and ideally be in the process of) returning your charger. They could just be asking to ballpark when your phone will be at full charge so they can ask to use the charger again later
There are still areas where one has to share one charger? Hell, I probably could build a house with all the bricks I got thrown in with some device or other. A sad, plastic house, but still.
Yes, there are still people with iPhones who have to forage for the rare available lightning charger and cable.
For the rest of us, USB-C Is cheap, abundant and ubiquitous.
What if someone, i don’t know, doesn’t have their charger with them?
Chances are that the location they are at has about seven dozen USB-Ports/Chargers.
With iPhone (finally) switching to USB-C this will become even more of a problem. I used to pull out my old iPod charging cable from storage when a friend would ask me for a charger at my house to get a rise out of them. However my portable charger did come with both USB-C and lightning connections so they were always in luck.
as an Android person... I already have like 5 USB C chargers lying around for all of my devices
Uh I just plugged in a minute ago... I'm only at 5% but sure take your precious charger back. Thanks for your "generosity"...
