#Apple will no longer backport critical security fixes to iOS 18. Perhaps they thought it would force their users to upgrade to the hated iOS 26. Instead, people are simply not upgrading at all, putting themselves and their devices at risk.

in reply to Andrew Gallagher • • •So many weird decisions at Apple in recent 2-3 years, both UI wise and conceptually. By now it feels as if parts of macOS were vibe coded, considering the level of inconsistency and instability. They start to switch things around, then suddenly stop half-way. Doesn't matter if along the way things broke. Now we need to drop everything and focus on AI 🙄
They are doing some great work as well. Passkeys are nice and the improvements for passkeys in macOS Tahoe are welcome - users can now export passkeys - yey! But how can I install - let alone enjoy - that new UI style, after Tim Apple bowed down to Trump and handed over that ridiculous glass trophy in the new UI style?
That OS 26 look is the first time I really feel I won't accustom to what Apple thinks is good for users. I have an iPad running iPadOS26 and it just made me use my #CrDroid customOS tablet more and the iPad less.
It's not even funny anymore. And I am a long time macOS user and love that OS. #

I wish I could erase that video out of my memory, really!

On the bright side: I discovered Android, Linux, CustomRoms, Linux phones - so thanks Apple I guess?
