- Apple denied merging iOS and macOS at WWDC 2018, but evidence suggests otherwise.
- Safari's native video controls darken videos on iOS 18, iOS 26, and macOS 26 (Tahoe).
- The darkening effect disappears when controls fade or the mouse pointer moves away.
- Older iOS versions (e.g., iOS 15) do not exhibit this video darkening behavior.
- Apple introduced the change between iOS 16 and iOS 18, now extending it to macOS.
