It's ok. Hopefully people took it seriously and updated quickly.

Why click into this thread then? Do you think they will make a Swift 7 with these release notes: - removed 10 keywords cause chairhairair didn't like them - fixed swiftui cause too many users don't know order matters - added another dsl implementation

This is a very impressive release. The continued type checker improvements are amazing, improved memory safety helping to expose hidden traps, improved debugging, improved dev experience for Android. Great job!

I don't understand this viewpoint. So, the release version is 27.0 build 26A428. That build is static, how can it get more stable than it is right now? Lets say 27.1 comes out in 2 weeks - do you update to 27.0 instead of 27.1? When is it snappy enough?

Xcode 27 beta 3 has been the most stable release I've ever used. The type checking improvements were understated so I gotta laugh at this xcode avoidance.

Areas they could improve - what ever the heck is going on in their diffing ui for source control.

Can you fix the resizing text box issue on Safari when a new line is inserted? When your question wraps to a newline Safari locks up for a few seconds and it's really annoying. You can test by pasting text too.

I mean... "In projects with many local Swift packages (~160 packages, ~2,100 targets), the "Compute target dependency graph" phase takes 60+ seconds"

I'm doubting this is a comparable setup for the vast majority of swift users. Is it unfortunate for people who land on this edge case - yes.

My experience shows it's fast and our iOS apps build faster than a feature parity Android app.

> Apple barely maintains compatibility for their own platforms...

You're commenting on a post about an update... that they apparently don't do? What?

Posted for 2 hours and almost half the takes are pretty unhinged and downvoted.

I'd say this is pretty disappointing that they keep pushing these kinds of mass surveillance laws "just in case".

A preferable alternative is to have the hosts moderate the content they serve that is publicly available. But there are cons to that too - what content should be reported etc.

Same here. Not really understanding the complaints for macOS. I think the addition of icons in the context and menus is worse than glass.

Perhaps macOS would suffice?

> I make it clear it's not about specs, it's not about UI, its about the fact that apple makes the world actively worse so they can sell you a better alternative.

I like the UI. What do you think they making worse?
