The video taps into nostalgia and the niche interest of downgrading to older iOS versions, which can be a technically complex process. The clear demonstration of the setup steps, combined with the intriguing premise of setting up an older OS in the future, likely drove engagement.

firstly, you need to have your Mac on macOS 10.12. No other version will work once you are downgraded go to Safari and search in dusk downgrade and go to ipsw.me. get any IPSW for your device (I chose 11.3.1) then go to terminal and type cd downloads and then go to the dusk downgrade folder and you will need to verify the exec file, then put or drag file into your terminal along with the IPSW and enter DFU a lot of times. #i#ios11i#iphone6sd#downgradem#macosm#mac
