I know I already made a post to this effect but it's so baffling to me when someone defends the fact that headphone jacks are slowly but surely getting phased out by smartphone manufacturers with some variations of "wireless headphones are more convenient anyway" bc like. If we're talking about convenience what I like about wired headphones is that they conveniently have a single plug that makes the same damn pair of headphones universally compatible with every single audio-output-capable device I own, from my phone and my computer to my fucking gameboy and my casette player, it doesn't get any more convenient than that.

Also you cannot listen to your own mixes/masters on bluetooth headphones, as they lose a lot of quality from either the wireless part, or the noise-cancelling part (especially with subs). Removing standardised headphone jacks will not just affect the listener - but could damage our capacity for DIY music production, and drive up costs by making the proper gear (with headphone jacks) more rare, expensive and putting the burden of preservation on us. Also for ADHD reasons, I'd rather deal with a tangle than deal with losing my 200-400$ pair of headphones altogether.
