if it fits, it should work, unlike 9/25pin dsubs

It's univeral because every plug can be connect to another plug.

you forgot 3.0 is actually 3.1. i dont get why they did this

It's called universal because none of the standards are peripheral-specific. In other words, it avoids there being a "Keyboard port" like PS/2 or some other old standard. With all the peripherals that exist, it would be silly to have to have a dedicated port for each kind, which is why USB was invented.
They teach you this kinda shit in high school. Proof that everyone else in this thread is underage and needs to read rule 2

USB 3 a shit, it interferes with bluetooth HARD. It also interferes with wifi, but it's barely noticable.
USB 1 + 2 perfect. No issues with incompatibilies. "It just works".
USB 3 a complete and utter shit. Some xHCI implementations can't handle USB 2 devices and some EHCI implementations cannot handle USB 3. Total trainwreck with still slow speeds and laughable power delivery capabilities.
USB-C = ???, probably shit as well but at least it delivers power

Wasn't it something like Usb3 was 3.6gbps then 3.1 was a firmware update that allowed 5gbps and they decided that was enough for a name change. 3.1gen2 comes along and fucks it all up.
Is 3.2 the coming 20gbps standard? Chasing thunderbolt speeds and displayport/charging has made a shit show of Usb3.
