It’s honestly had me questioning whether I want to stick to the Apple ecosystem.

I’ve been avoiding iOS 26, mostly because I don’t have the time to deal with a major OS update during the holidays. Apple has decided I should be vulnerable to critical security bugs instead of letting me upgrade on my own time.
