      they’re not yet forced (law didn’t get into effect yet, end of 2024) and the EU has also set strict guidelines in the law that prevent apple from making their own standard much better than normal usb PD (the requirement is that if the device could charge with at least 18W, it must be possible to use a ‘standard’ USB PD charger at 18W). While it is a start, it’s probably still gonna be a pain.
