USB Type C is great! ...unless you have to use dongles anyway.

I liked the style of this video

You don't have to use dongles, there are adapter plugs barely bigger than a USB plug:

But... that is a dongle? He also mentions them in the video.

Regardless, the idea that re-soldering a new usb header on your devices is somehow better/easier than just using a dongle like that is kind of absurd. Still a fun proof of concept, though.
