That’s weird, I’ve always thought of floppies as pretty durable. The 3.5" ones anyway; the older larger ones were flimsier. On the 3.5" ones the little metal cover would get bent sometimes, or occasionally crushed if someone put one in a back pocket and forgot before they sat down; but in my career I’ve had a lot more thumbdrives broken off in the port than bent/crushed floppies. How did you find most of yours broke? Maybe I had an abundance of clumsy colleagues… or maybe I joined the IT workforce too late to have witnessed the tsunami of broken floppies!
if it aint broke dont fix it. That door plug on the other hand
I remember using floppies and they broke a lot. Probably more than USB drives

Thumbdrives broken off in the port?? That’s some degenerate levels of sexual frustration coming to light, brother…
Work in IT as long as I have and if you don’t learn not to judge, you at least learn not to bother judging 😋
Preach it, person. Sysadmin here, the job fades you to humanity.
