I mean, how many people still use wired earbuds? I'd be surprised if it is 5% of users
I would still us wired earbuds if my phone still had a headphone jack... It hard to find a good phone that still has a jack and this sucks
Use a dongle or usb c earbuds
I had 2, lost both :(

Me, everyday. Bluetooth just doesn't offer the same sound quality.
I have three pairs of wired earphones (plus more regular headphones) and a portable DAC amp. I know what you mean though, Bluetooth headphones really are the norm these days. The tech in them also make them hard to repair.
I use a usbc dac and a 3d printed brace to prevent it from bending. For how infrequently I use the earbuds it's fine for me. Most of my phone based music listening is at work on an AliExpress Bluetooth device hooked up to the speakers pulled from my car before junking it. (Catalytic had been stolen and it had 400+ thou. km on it)
I do, however the headphone jack on my last phone was so bad I ended up just using the dongle anyway to get decent audio.
