any hardware device that requires a mobile app to work should be forced by law to release open source drivers for device in case app stops working. There's going to be a lot of gadgets that will be dead within a few years. I feel that's more important than "everything usb-c"

@djlink I bought the Lego Life of George set back in 2011 and two years later they killed off the app. Sure I have blocks but the point of that set is ruined.

@djlink This is my primary issue with some modern board games incorporating apps.

@djlink But David, how will they force you to buy a new device in that case?!

@JeremiahFieldhaven let's use their "we don't package cables and adapters because of environment" argument against them xD
