@IanHill @evacide there hasn’t been an 18 update for most devices for months, in an attempt to force everyone on the devices that can run it to ugly-Rohrkrepierer‡-26

@mirabilos @IanHill @evacide odd how it says on apple's releases page that coruna was patched in 2023 and is now only being brought to older versions of iOS https://support.apple.com/en-ca/126646

@rosano @IanHill @evacide but still, missing at least 4 patchlevels already for the SE 2022; this sucks

@mirabilos @rosano @IanHill @evacide So you can upgrade. If you choose not to, your problem.

@IanHill @rosano @waldi @evacide no, UI-wise I cannot, these transparency effects make it unusable for me

@mirabilos @IanHill @rosano @evacide So you technically can. Thank you for the confirmation.

Now I try to find screenshots again of 18, and I don't see much difference. To be exact, I have no transparency anymore at all on this 26.4.
