XCode is also a steaming pile of shit. For example, it took them literal years to get syntax highlighting stable for Swift. You’d just be typing and poof, all the text would turn black.

Meanwhile my Visual Studio Professional at work will crash if I decide I want to delete a folder, the syntax highlighting will just stop working randomly and I’ll have to quit and re-open the solution.

Never used Xcode for any meaningful length of time, but VS Pro isn’t perfect either.

Yeah Visual Studio is terrible too, and slow as dirt. VSCode or any Jetbrains editor is where it’s at these days.

I love VSCode as a text editor. Shame work makes us use VS Pro as our IDE. We do get CoPilot integration though which is neat.
