I feel like I’m way too old to not know this. But I guess you don’t learn if you don’t ask, and everything I’m reading is saying to use QTips. But I’ve also read that you aren’t supposed to, because you compact ear wax deep in your ear canal. I also know that you SHOULD have some wax in there, but my new AirPods are picking up way more wax than my old ones and I hate it. I don’t have an issue with it being where people can see it, but I definitely feel like there’s more in there than what should be, and idk how to fix it. I wash around and a little in my ears when I shower, but my AirPods still always have wax on them.
Tia!
