Other brands have a universal charger, Tesla has a proprietary one

Why does that surprise me, actually?

Not really true in newer models. The Tesla charger was adopted as the North American Charging System (NACS.) Pretty much every new EV made in the last 2 years uses it, and all of them will moving forward.

I'm not in north America, I think for Europe IEC 92196 Typ 2 is the norm.
