USB-C adoption will only increase. It always takes years before a standard is widespread. Most Android phones use it, there's an iPad that uses it. I assume most new laptop models have it. Headphones have it. You can find a USB-C version of more and more peripherals. Basically whenever you buy a new device just make sure it has USB-C. And it will be a much longer-lasting standard than micro USB or others. It can be used for graphics (ie replace HDMI), analog audio, charging and charging negotiation, etc. So it can replace a lot of other things.
I'm aware it can be used for a lot, my monitor is currently plugged in via USB C to display port.
I guess what I want to say is, its fucking idiotic to have only USB-C. Its been over three years and I'm still seeing people lug around adapters, which means it was a failure of design to ditch the old style all together.
It could have been half and half, or maybe just one idk.
Its been what? 3 years? I'm not seeing widespread adoption for usb C by default.
Its already a pain to grab a flash drive that will work on a mac when you usually use Linux/windows.

Sometimes they have to just bite the bullet but I'm sure cost-cutting is still a big part of it.
Plus keeping those particular models thin.
