But then I have to upgrade to iOS 26… The cure is worse than the disease!
For now I am using wireguard+pihole on a cheap VPS for all my devices. It’s not perfect (data center IP so some places block it) but it’s good enough for now. When I’m forced to update to 26 will definitely look at Wipr since I tested that out and it was really good other than the in-app issue.
Or just do the 26 upgrade, the Liquid Glass changes are grossly overstated, it's not a drastic change...
True. macOS Tahoe is far worse. It looks like a poorly designed Linux variant.
