@nano take it back

full sized sd is the best, maybe mini sd but thats as small as you can go before its really annoying to handle and easy to lose (like microsd, though that certainly has its uses)

usb flash drives can go to hell as far as i care though, shape sucks, and despite being oftentimes judged on the merits of recent standards, you’re pretty much stuck with 2.0 cause any more requires a more complicated (and expensive) pcb that the manufacturers cant be bothered to make

@nano For me, flash drives are neat due to being portable and usable with all PCs and some phones, with the right port or adapter. As for full-size SD cards, yeah, MicroSD cards made them near-obsolete. So many electronics come out with only a MicroSD port, and all MicroSD cards come with a fullsize adapter.

@poppyart i dont like them because they stick out of devices and can be easily snapped off and destroyed. micro sd cards sit flush inside of a device without sticking out so there's no chance of destroying them
