Don't worry--the bureaucrats in the EU are working on legislation to fix that for you.
When we become part of the EU?
No, when the cellphone manufacturers who want to sell in the EU succumb to their laws.
We are talking the European Union?
Yes. They're a primary reason that Android phones standardized on MicroUSB and, later, USB-C for the charging port.

I remember seeing that now. Apple was mad as heck about it.
My lawn mower was 11 years old, and I was working on it, more than mowing with it. Both my neighbors bought new $8,500.00+ fancy zero turn mowers. I'm older than dirt and hate to mow in hot weather. I called a lawn service for an estimate, and they offered to mow and trim my yard for $75.00 each mowing. I'm not, very sharp. but if you divide $75.00 into $8,500.00 plus interest payed, or lost, plus parts and maintenance cost, I can have my yard mowed and trimed for 10 years+, for less than the news mower cost! In 10 years I would have to start over, because the mower would be worn out!
