But you asked for all the AI slop to be soldered into it, didn't you?
Oh, wait... -

@stux If an OS image is more than 3-4GB in size, the developers have failed

@stux I ainโt never upgrading to iOS 26 if I can help it. Stick with 18.7.2! I donโt like the look of liquid glass personally

@sayonaraminasan @stux I have an iPhone 15 Pro Max on iOS 18 that will not be updated to iOS 26, partly because I need it for developing apps, but also because iOS 26 is not very nice. It's all just fancy schmancy nonsense instead of what we need. While iOS might've needed a refresh, Liquid Glass was not the answer. It's got so many bugs and issues that won't get fixed. We're 5 months after release, and obvious bugs aren't fixed.
Apple's developers moved onto iOS 27. This is how it goes now.

@darkpaw same bro. Phone does what I need as it. I can only imagine that performance will be worse if I update it.

@andypiper Woah, canโt even imagine! But yeah, everything was sooo much smaller even a few decades ago
@stux @andypiper I remember running win98 with 64MB RAM

@stux I feel like they intentionally make them large so customers run out of storage and need to upgrade
