I'm sort of with you. But we must be old. All the "kids" that came on board Apple as I was heading out loved Swift.
I liked Swift up until some of the "kids" started using esoteric features of it that bent my mind. I know from experience that everything that looks odd at first will, one day, become second nature.
But as I say, perhaps like me, you're old. Because I'm just getting a little tired of waiting for my bent mind to straighten out.
It was amusing reading the article. MPW, THINK Pascal, THINK C, Objective-C, Swift ... yep, over the nearly 40 years of my career I have known them all.
"For I have known them all already, known them all:
Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;"
And also in all the ways to allocate and release memory.
