What adapter do you use? Seriously, I am open to paying more for an adapter once instead of buying cheap adapters over and over.

I don’t lean either way on the headphone jack debate. But a friend insisted that cheapness was one of the main reasons he preferred wired headphones. Bluetooth ones were too expensive and he kept losing or destroying them. Definitely a him problem but replacing cheap headphones was easier and the dongle was just another layer of expense to deal with if the phone didn’t have a jack.
