Because you know what a desktop pc needs? Dongle.
Meh. Dongles on portables is bigger pain in the ass. And Apple doesn’t have any USB-A on their current portable line.
You can get small adapters for USB, no need for a dongle.
At least with a desktop space isn't a concern, and adapters from A to C are tiny.
Or you can add a card.
Unlike on a laptop.
Its still pathetic you need one
I mean I need a hub for my Mac mini and it had USB A ports. I’d personally much rather them give me more multi function USB C and just get a different hub than have half the ports be single function USB A
This is a Mac Mini, you can't add or upgrade shit. Can't upgrade RAM, can't change storage and you certainly can't "add a card" as all those things go against the "Apple Vision" after all.
Frankly, I don't consider a Mac Mini to be a desktop at all without any of those abilities
