Why are glass pipes for activated charcoal filters so rare? (feddit.de)

I'm thinking about getting my first hand pipe and have been looking around. When I roll a joint, I always roll with charcoal filters, and I'd like to keep using filters when smoking a pipe. Now, this is the absolute standard for tobacco pipes, but for weed bowl pipes, it's apparently not?

I don't get it, it filters out harmful stuff, it's cheap, easy, already normal for joints, but somehow, no nice glass bowl pipe I find has a mouthpiece that allows for charcoal filters.

Am I dumb and there's a trick to using filters with those pipes I'm not getting?

If you are concerned about your health, you should consider discontinuing your bong use. Here's a comment of mine with info on health risks associated with bong use.

No judgment, just information! There is so much misinformation about bongs/water pipes out there, and I was a victim of that misinformation for years. Just want to spread awareness for people like me who care about mitigating the risks.

I appreciate that very much. I skimmed it and will be looking at it later. I did notice you mentioned desktop vapes.

I actually recently got a ball vape. The SS zeal and I absolutely love it. Changing Temps from low to high depending on when I'm smoking is the best. I'm about to smoke/vape now.
