If Apple is really going to remove UI compatibility mode in the next Xcode (the ability to opt out of liquid ass) that will probably be the death of at least one of my apps. The UI is too complex and Liquid Glass just fails in horrific ways.

I very much resent Apple forcing work on developers. Actively killing apps is totally unacceptable.

This would be a completely different discussion if everything in LG, SwiftUI, SwiftData, etc actually worked.

@patrickmcconnell They have been doing this for a long time. It is a consistent strategy that destroys small developers. It is part of why I abandoned making iOS apps at all. There is no way to make money without a huge investment in maintaining an app.
