Typically, when a new OS version is released, some older devices are left off of the compatibility list, and it shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone, in my opinion.

I agree with D. This should not be a surprise to anyone!

It's not a surprise ! My old iPad 5 is only partially supported at the moment, 16.7.7, but still runs everything I need it to. It won't be replaced till it won't. iOS 18 sounds like when that might happen. Depends what might be upgraded.
It seems to me that I won't actually want any of the much trumpeted new features anyway. Although there are a few things that I'd like, that Apple definitely won't do.
I also don't like at all the idea, that Apple seems to be drawing closer to Google again !
