Would it make sense to move the announcement to top of README?

Maybe even some scary-looking alarm emojis, or things to grab people's eye.

What about also updating the repo description with some warning message?

I was thinking about that since someone needs to scroll past the image to see the announcement


**The iOS Drop-In SDK is currently inactive and will be unsupported by November 2025**. As of December 2024, the iOS Drop-In SDK is inactive. No additional features will be added with the exception of security updates. As an alternative, we recommend using the ![Braintree SDK](https://github.com/braintree/braintree_ios) for unbranded checkout.

Nit / take it or leave it - instead of "recommend" (which suggests they maybe look to another provider) do we want to say something like

"Instead, implement a custom UI using braintree_ios"?

Should I add that we are no longer addressing bugs? or leave it at "no additional features will be added"?

I changed the last sentence to say "Instead, implement a custom UI using the Braintree SDK (braintree_ios)." Open to feedback about the wording
