Honestly I’d love a backwards/forwards-compatible USB-C with a socket recessed deep into a device and some mechanical locking mechanism for strain relief.
Honestly, XLR being such a sturdy as hell connector. Can’t go wrong with it. But maybe USB-C can fit in mini-XLR so it is not as bukly as a normal one.
Yeah, kind of. I was thinking of something smaller, so that the cable would be compatible with standard ports. Basically the locking mechanism should be almost entirely on the port side, with the cable itself only having a passive “receptacle” for the locking pins, so that it fits into existing ports.

Something like this? I’ve used the ethernet version of these connectors and they are quite robust. They are rather pricey though.
Lol. USB C-XLR 🤣
