So I updated my phone to iOS18, and apparently we have a repeat of the VoiceOver bug where the keyboard doesn't speak, at least when entering passcodes. So I'm waiting for the 15-minute expiration so I can attempt to unlock my phone and hopefully get it right so that the phone doesn't lock me out again after one try. How does this stuff get past QA?

@Bruce_Toews @mcourcel Personal Mastodon instances don't require a privacy policy, at least if they're not hosted in the EU, but the big servers definitely aren't personal ones and I'm pretty sure the fediverse is headed for a compliance nightmare if we ever get the data privacy regulations we need. So I definitely get Bruce's point. People in glass houses and all that.
