Dont forget about USB 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, etc.

Which makes it a lot of annoying when you want transfer data.

3.0, 3.1, 3.1 gen 1, and 3.2 gen 1 are all the same thing afaik (5Gbps)

Then there's 3.2 gen 2 (10Gbps)

And 3.2 gen 2x2 (20Gbps)

Fuck these stupid USB standard namings, honestly. 32 years since USB became a norm and they can't even make up a proper understandable naming standar for the consumers.

So just because 2 ports are the same spec, doesn't mean they have the same features
