Xcode is the reason i've never written true native mac apps. Ever. I program hobby stuff in lots of environments and languages depending on how i'm feeling. I have no trouble starting up Rider, PyCharm, Visual Studio, VSCode, whatever, and writing C#+Maui/Avalonia, Rust, Svelte+Tauri, Python+QT, etc. Whatever will work best for what i'm trying to do, or seems fun at the time. That's for regular coding, too. I have lots of PLC environments i work with for embedded stuff (Siemens, etc). I've learned lots of environments, and while they all have their issues, etc, they are all fairly usable pretty quickly, and stay that way. Meanwhile, every time i have ever sat down and tried to use XCode (a bunch of times over the past 10+ years), it is so annoying that i give up in a day or two and just go use something else. It's gotten progressively worse - it felt much easier to try 10 years ago than it does now. It is hard to describe how strange it feels to try to use it. I guess i'll go with "it often feels like it was created for use by some alien race specializing in industrial automation". It's not quite right, but i think it transfers some of the feeling. I honestly can't imagine how anyone uses it on a regular basis.
