My personal experience mirrors yours. I remember when Swift announcement from Apple came that the main author of GNUStep (sorry I forgot the name) announced an open source impl the same day. My thoughts back then: „maybe make the last effort actually usable before jumping to the next big project“. But I don‘t want to downplay the work and time put into this project. I would simply not use it in any project because of the number of compatibility bugs that haunts the project. I used the project in production via Apportable’s crosscompile solution to port iOS native apps to android.
