Primarily, wired headphones tend to be less disposable. Don't require batteries too.

I had to get wireless earbuds too, since my company requires me to use a device of their choosing, but we're talking personal preference here.

Sure, wireless BT has come a long way, no argument there, and it's not like I listen to FLACs on the go.

The thing with dongles is that they look fragile AF.

And I find it hard to justify the unnecessary use of batteries, it's just something else for me to forget, and also somewhat raises some environmental concerns.. idk

But that's only my POV on the matter, not a hard stance or anything

Yeah, they're cheap enough Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for the heads-up!

 

Hi Boost, new user here!

Explaining a bit, for clarity.

My goal here would be to just check out some other instances, without having to follow all the communities that I feel are relevant.

From my perception, I can only do that with the help from the search tool, and even there I'd have to rely on the "Posts" tab, right?

Cheers!

Kind of the same for me. Just to add that I only heard about Boost after the whole thing came about

Tried some apps, and decided to wait until this one became available.

It's a very similar experience IMHO, love the customization options.

The only ones I've seen have 180° degree USB-C ports, I haven't really been thorough searching tbf..

I feel like they could pose damage to the charging port, if I were to use them with the phone on my pocket.

Probably just overthinking it but still 😂

Was actually looking into getting one myself. But the lack of a headphone jack is a deal breaker for me.
