iOS 18

For some reason because of the scale of the actual iOS 18 update, and the amount of celebrities cancelled around that time, a personal metaphor for overly restrictive, even by a little, safety measures that aren’t posted to Instagram due to the highlight reel effect. For example, Instagram banned adults from DM’ing teens under 18, or a dad telling his young adult son to always avoid hugging his young cousin of an opposite gender, including good morning and good night hugs, and going into his room when the door is open, unless with direct parental consent every time.

I blame me feeling as sad as when my crush moved away and got a boyfriend on “iOS 18”.
