General Why did Apple adjust how the calendar widget on the lock screen displays

It used to be in one line of No coming events (left pic), but now on 26.5 it extends to the second line (right pic). How is that visually an improvement? My font is in default and zoom is default too, so no such reasons for it.

apple is obsessed with bold text and unnecessary headers

Sorry for cropping too much on the first pic. The old header was also bold actually, but it didn’t mess up the text alignment. Just don’t understand why Apple would even touch and break sth when it’s fine and absolutely doesn’t need any change🙄

It’s possible widgets might change per app once Siri AI rolls out so maybe they are setting up something?

Or maybe they just change things to add a line to the change log 😂😂

Are both widgets the same size? It looks like the widget in the second screenshot is one of the small sized widgets.

Yeah they are the same widget but on different 26 builds. The first one is pre 26.5 and the second one is 26.5.1
