It hardens the iPhone against many attack vectors, including 0click vulns. But can break some sites. I’m probably an outlier here, so I totally understand if you don’t want to spend any time investigating it haha
“Certain complex web technologies, like just-in-time (JIT) JavaScript compilation, are disabled unless the user excludes a trusted site from Lockdown Mode.”
What’s interesting is if you exclude a site from Lockdown Mode on iOS it will honor that exclusion in a PWA on iOS. But, won’t do this on macOS. So, accessing noStrudel through a Safari PWA on macOS remains broken due to Lockdown Mode blocking something from the site. But, would be cool if it could be compatible for us security conscious people. 🙏
