I see a lot of people complaining that the Fairphone 6 doesn’t have an Aux jack.

Just use an adapter cable.

A 3.5mm Aux jack takes up a significant amount of space just to connect a few wires that could be connected through USB-C anyway, that space could be used for a bigger battery.

Even if there was a good enough reason to keep Aux it should be 2.5mm Aux and not the usual 3.5 as it does exactly the same thing but uses less space

    I admittedly have a bunch of headphones because I won’t make my family listen to my music that they hate, but I have different pairs for stationary listening and moving. When I am on the move, usually doing chores in house, I’ll have my phone (or now portable music player since my Pixel 4a got nerfed into oblivion) in my pocket and use my wired IEMs. I greatly prefer over ear headphones, but they aren’t so great when you’re on the move. The only headphones I have ever had break in my decades of using them were a pair that I let someone else use. Some (many?) people are just really rough on their things, I don’t get it.
