Ive never had a USB-C with orientation issues. What am I missing?

[-] BCsven@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 months ago

I have heard on some adapter cables from USB-A to C, you can have the C end flipped 180 and on devices not expecting this you get a different transfer speed on the A end. Rather then build in redundancy and duplicate the transmission path they've just built a cheap this should go this way device.

thats less of a USB issue and more of a cheap ass knockoff manufacturer issue.

You have to plug it either — horizontal or — horizontal (upside down). You can't plug it / or | or \, so you have to do more twisting and bending in the dark or to reach a far / beyond-corner connector.
