(Not sure if this is worldwide or only in some countries)

Updating to iOS 26.4DB2 will put your phone into a parental-restricted mode with adult websites blocked on all browsers, warning prompts every time you try to send or receive an explicit image on a messaging app, and all social media apps blocked on the App Store (in Australia)

The settings to disable this mode are locked off until you verify your age either with a credit card, photo ID, or though information Apple already has (like the age of your account).

I’ve been an apple user my entire adult life but this might finally be the thing that forces me off the platform. Do any other long term apple users have some tips about migrating? I’ve heard Ashai Linux is pretty good on mac hardware these days and I’ve been thinking about GrapheneOS for a while.

    i use fedora asahi remix with kde on M1, so far it’s great except the battery life is not as good as in macos but i don’t care … finally i escaped the shitty glass design among other shitty things apple does… and have been using Grephene for more than a year, It’s honestly the most stable, seamless OS i tried, the kind of OS that just works and doesn’t annoy you. imo even better than ios !
