Alternate software updates

Why you don't see iOS 14 anymore

Hi, I'm back again.

Some background

If you're here, you're probably aware of the fact that Apple has been allowing users to stay on 14.5 and receive software updates. If you're out of the loop, take a look at this 9To5Mac article. This is called alternate software updates (or it may be shortened to AlternateSU in some places).

Anyways, this is what you would have been expecting if you checked for updates today:
