Tailwind v4 Breaks on IOS <16.4 - we need a proper fallback urgently.
The problems have been reported countless times already and a few brave community members are even trying to propose solutions for it.
Tailwind adoption is churning for serious production deployed projects and definetly deserve some special attention from the core team.
V4 is effectively useless on iOS <16.4 (iphone X and below, ipads as well stuck on old safari versions - probably other older browsers and platforms as well like firefox on some linux installations, etc.), breaking sites entirely for a huge segment of users worldwide. This is very bad for business.
This isn't some minor inconvenience—honestly it’s a complete disaster for accessibility, usability, and developer sanity (if you care about it or just pretend to).
Are we seriously telling people to throw their older gadgets in the bin just to view a website properly? This is not a luxury issue. This is a fundamental failure in progressive enhancement, an awful accessibility policy.
There is no fallback to support minimally the millions of users with older phones and devices.
