Darn. I was really hoping it would improve.

I guess I can just use VS Code for now. And maybe use Rider in the future.

Rider doesn’t support MAUI. Nor does it support .net for iOS and .net for Mac which are part of MAUI and the natural upgrade from Xamarin. I downloaded Rider a few months ago and enjoyed being able to switch between VSMac and Rider, and especially enjoyed using CodePilot in Rider.

However Rider has a couple of nasty bugs that have been there for years - one of which was to ignore breakpoints. That came and went on me for a while.

I’ve never experienced the breakpoint issue with Rider but I do find myself needing to invalidate cache and reload every now and then if I’m using it heavily. To be fair though I’ve had to do the same with VS for windows. It was always nice to use VS for Mac as a last resort sanity check though just to roll out that Rider is having issues and not my code.
