I was not expecting an IOS update for my ancient iPad Min 2.

But, here one is. 12.5.8. To update certificates, apparently.

Genuinely impressed at Apple. This is an almost 13 year old device. Thanks for not bricking my device when certs expire next year.

Yay I finally found how to turn on “dark mode” on iOS 12
It is not a true dark mode, just a feature called smart inversion. But it is good enough tbh

VLC WOKS ON IOS12 HELL YEAHHHHH
I love vlc

Fluffychat is the only one app for matrix for a old #iphone6 but ...

> Looks like WebRTC.framework/WebRTC (which was built for iOS 13.0) indicates that it is the fault of the webrtc plugin which needs iOS 13 at least. I don't know a workaround here so I fear that there is no way to fix it :-/ Only way seems to be to drop support for iOS 12 if no one else has an idea

Do you have an idea?

#WhatsApp unterstützt noch #Android5. Vermutlich hat die Entscheidung zukünftig #iOS12 nicht mehr zu unterstützen einen finanziellen Hintergrund. Der Aufwand lohnt sich nicht mehr, da der Anteil von Geräten mit iOS 12 zu gering ist.

Das sagt leider auch viel über das #Android-Ökosystem aus. Ist es 2024 noch sicher ein OS zu nutzen, dass das letzte Update im April 2015 erhalten hat?

No dark mode, no party #iOS12

@MonaApp for iOS 12 is just....for comparison, imagine if Tusky and Subway Tooter together get comhined.

And even more then that.

Is there any way to listen to #tidal on an old #iPad that can only run #iOS12 ?

Tidal Web player doesn't work, Tidal app requires #iOS15 , I can't install #Firefox (requires iOS 15 as well) 😢

Mastodon klienta @MonaApp nemám rád, protože má linuxový/androidí přístup “všechno umím, ale přijď si na to sám”, nicméně za jednu věc musím dát kredit.

Tchýně mi vrátila stařičký iPad Mini 2 z Nov 2013 (takže 10 let) a já z něj udělal čtečku knih a chtěl tam mít i Mastodon.

Žádný z hlavních hráčů to neumožňuje (iOS 12.5.7), jen Mona, takže pokud máte opravdu starý zařízení, Mona může být řešením.

#mastodon #client #ios12

I’m trying out @MonaApp and I have to say, seeing a NEW social media app in 2023 supporting back #iOS12 from the start, fills me with joy.

It blows my mind that #Apple still pushes #SecurityPatches to older devices. I updated my nine-year-old #iPhone5S 🤩 to the most current #ios12 and I updated two other iPhones as well 🤓 #securityupdate

Got an old iOS device?

Time to patch that up, too!

Apple just updated iOS 12 to patch a critical security flaw https://www.macworld.com/article/1483041/ios-12-5-7-iphone-6-security-update-zero-day.html

Wife found her old long lost ipad. It works fine, but was abandoned after IOS 12 (16 is current), hardly any apps still compatible with 12.

What can it safely be used for?

Maybe make it a shelf top photo display. Leave it off the network, only upload photos via usb cable.
