The chargers are fine, but the old cables are now much less useful. The only thing left (I think?) that uses lightning are AirPods.

AirPods, Mighty Mouse, Magic Trackpad.

That’s going to be me after the iPhone 15 comes out. I’ve been needing to upgrade for a while now, but have been waiting until the 15 comes out so I can switch over to usb-c. The only one left after that will be my AirPods.
