Weird. I guess the article didn't say it explicitly, but that's how i interpreted this passage:
> And, of course, there's the headphone jack. Unless you're using the Mac Mini or an iMac, if you wanna connect something that isn't USB-C or Lightning, you're out of luck. Enter the dongle.
> In 2018, the best-selling Apple products at Best Buy were AirPods and the Lightning-to-3.5 mm dongle. Both of these products exist because Apple got rid of the headphone jack.
I guess you can/need to use a lightning-to-3.5mm dongle on an iPhone too, and that's all they meant, not macbooks? The "unless you are using the mac mini or an imac" surrounded on both sides by discussion of headphone jacks is kinda misleading.
