    My house growing up had a bunch of those (female) ports around and we had the adapters to convert them to RJ11.

  Not sure why it’s shitty - easy to assemble, cheap, effective at eliminating contact noise with a high-compliance wiping contact.

  the only shitty part is the exposed retaining clip which gets broken off
