stacksmashingOption A: Upgrade iPhone to iOS26 and have to use liquid glass
Option B: Get pwned by DarkSword malware
I don't know which one is worse
zoe 
@stacksmashing why not both :3
bilbo_b@stacksmashing just flip a coin then
starbug@stacksmashing if you choose option A you will also have to upgrade macOS at some point or your local backup wont work anymore
Siguza@starbug @stacksmashing do you actually have evidence of this? MobileDevice.framework is independently updateable, and based on the binary itself should be compatible pretty far down in macOS versions. So at least in theory, 10.11 should still be able to sync with a phone on 26.
@siguza @stacksmashing it happened at least once (I think twice) and its been a while that when I wanted to mount the phone into the finder it was complaining about incompatibility.
Dr. Christopher Kunz@stacksmashing fwiw they're massively toning down the liquid glass - 26.4. brings additional options to disable some of it. So my guess is that by IOS27, LG is fully rolled back.
