Welp, I've been holding on out that liquid glass crap as long possible. Guess my phone is just going to suck now.
If it's really as bad as all that, they'll patch existing older releases.

#12I got an alert this morning for an iOS update numbered 26.3.1(a). (a)? This must be really bad .
What device? I don't see anything beyond 26.3.1 on my iPhone 15 PromaxXDR™

#13I'm really hoping Apple backtracks on its refusal to update the 18.x line for phones that are compatible with 26. At least provide a security update.

Apple is probably going to issue an update for 18. Heck they released a security update for coruna on 15.x last week. Same thing maybe?

iPhone 15 (vanilla) running iOS 18.7.2. I now have a permanent notification on my lock screen nagging me to update to iOS 26.

Liquid glass isn’t too bad on the iPhone or even the iPad. It’s mostly on the Mac that it sucks.

Their design disaster must be hidden in metrics, damn be security.

I thought the same thing but updated couple weeks back and actually really really enjoy the liquid glass. I don't recall what it was about the release that made me think I'd hate it, but I've half fallen in love with it, I was just thinking yesterday I wonder what all the fuss was about.

#19>We also identified additional code added when the actor attempts to infect a user using Chrome, where the x-safari-https protocol handler is used to open the page in Safari (Figure 4). This suggests that UNC6748 didn't have an exploit chain for Chrome at the time of this activity.
Thanks Apple for allowing the overriding of the user's default browser.

Apple used to have a really good security record, it's mind boggling they blew it all up just to force Liquid Glass on users.
For those not in the loop, Apple used to provide security patches for supported older iOS versions. They changed a lot of behavior around the release of Liquid Glass (iOS 26, MacOS Tahoe). Starting with iOS 18.7.3, they only release patch versions for the iPhone XS and XR. They've repeated this, through to 18.7.6 now.
So much goodwill and trust, obliterated.
