*2026-08-18, version 8.0.75*

The most disgusting messaging app I’ve ever seen — it pulls every dirty trick in the book against links and attachments. All to protect its monopoly and lock users inside its own walled garden.

### 1/5 — 液态玻璃时代还在用老 UI

*2026-08-21, version 8.0.76*

微信图标至今没有适配 iOS 深色模式，这居然都能拖到现在。UI 更是没有适配液态玻璃，整体界面依旧是十年前的老古董，和现在的 iOS 设计语言完全不搭。作为一个使用频率这么高的 App，基础的视觉体验却这么落后，真的不知道这么多年更新都更新了些什么。1 星。
