minus-squareFizz@lemmy.nzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down9·1 month agoThanks to EU regulations the keyboard is limited to 20gbps data rates instead of the 40gbps that it would be doing over Thunderbolt. I hope your happy now that apple users suffer peasant speeds.

minus-squareniemcycle@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·1 month agoI’m very impressed by your typing speed if 20 gbps is a bottleneck
minus-squareMercuri@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·1 month agoI think you’re confusing Thunderbolt with the lightning cable. Hell, even basic USB-C is faster than lightning cable.
