USB-C is annoying. I thought my laptop dock was failing--the screen blanked out whenever it moved on the hinge and it kept getting worse. I initially blamed a weak wire between the screen and base but on a whim replaced the USB-C cable with a new, higher quality version and all the instability went away instantly.

@kyle its a flaw in the actual spec of the connector itself which is super flimsy, i cam deform and permanently bend a connector plug by just squeezing it between my thumb nails, the USB standards body should have gone with a design akin to the lightning connector which is a tank compared to USB-C and basically supports all the same transfer rates
