    idk what you’re getting into, but my older micro USB cables are dying from havy use on the wires and aging wire coating. I’m slowly running out.

    My newer devices came with small USB C cables and I think I have enough of those, but the long ones are rare and I need those too.

    While we are at it, can we just stop making new products with micro usb? I am quite happy to source good usb cables myself, but I’d like to not have to fuck around with different, but visually similar connectors.
