Apologies if the wrong community, if there’s a better suited one, please point me to it!

But, I figure we all buy USB-C cables, and being a progressive group of folks maybe someone has a suggestion so I cause slightly less waste pollution and waste? Here’s hoping!

Edit: Allrighty, apparently I’m just rough on all my usb cables OR you have all teamed up to prank me.

    That legit blows my mind. I’m not sure I’ve had a phone charging cable be effective for more than a year before I started having to jiggle it while standing on one leg facing East.

      It might also be partially due to a buildup of dust inside of the phone’s port. You can try carefully scraping in there with the end of a paperclip dipped in a little bit of rubbing alcohol when the phone is shut down. It takes a while but it really helped for me.
