Been doing iOS dev professionally for 7 years, and have been tinkering with Mac development since OS X 10.1 or so. I haven’t found any of this to be necessary. I only reformat every 2-3 major releases at most and sometimes go most of the lifetime of a machine without reformatting, and I have various backend and cross platform desktop dev stuff set up on the same machines. Have rarely if ever had issues with Xcode acting up… Is there something we’re doing differently to get such dramatically different outcomes?
