same. i thought it would have been as quick to pick up as rust. nowhere near. i spent weeks trying to go through every feature of the language at least once. time in which i could’ve read several rust books and already start hacking up some interesting projects. so much in swift is pointless syntax sugar. why do i need 50 ways to do exactly the same thing, it’s just nonsense. then i have to look up the language reference whenever i read a new codebase
