Whether anyone at Apple cares about documentation any more is another matter. A really sad state of affairs, because once upon a time, Apple had some of the best documentation out there. Of course, that was when they actively needed to court a developer community, and couldn't just announce something half-baked at WWDC and get mass adoption from enthusiastic developers.
You are dealing with a lot, in a compressed period of time.
Try to remember that your first priority and responsibility is looking after your own mental, physical and spiritual (I don't mean this in a religious sense) well being.
In your situation, work really should be the lowest priority that you can afford to make it. If you can afford to take extended time off to deal with everything you need to, I would highly recommend that you give it serious consideration.
It's only technically impossible if the system software and/or hardware can't be compromised/exploited.
If you are just going by the intent and marketing of any platform vendor, plenty of things are technically impossible. But exploits and flaws in software and hardware exist, and the resources a nation state can bring to bear to find and use them are significant.
There is a reason vendors run bug bounty programmes, why the jailbreak scene is still a thing, and cybercrime in general is booming.
I’d call you a person of taste and sophistication.
But more objectively, it is always a pleasure to come to some open source code base and know you have few worries about language churn incurring a maintenance cost.
It's one thing to admire the work/output of a company, but once you identify as a "Company X" supporter you are just closing yourself off to being critical of "Company X".
I cringe at every WWDC session when people applaud for minor features (new themes in Xcode!) and long overdue bug fixes.
I am embarrassed whenever someone online talks about a problem they have with Apple hardware or software, and they are met with passive-aggressive replies along the lines of "I've never seen that problem, what are you doing wrong..."
I develop for and use Apple platforms. I really like some things they have done, but I'd never consider myself an "Apple supporter".
I'm the customer, they are the vendor.
They are here to support me.
If they don't do a good job at that, I'll try to find another company to take their place.
Also companies change, as do their priorities. There was once a period in when MS were making the best internet browser (really)...
If it quacks like an alpha, is documented like an alpha, and is unreliable like an alpha... it's production ready because the vendor took the beta label off it.
You'd think iOS device and Mac fans would understand well the sentiment of 'not wanting to be a second-class citizen'.
Frame the discussion around Material design in iOS apps, Electron apps vs native apps, and I'm sure all your downvoters would emphatically agree: no one wants to be a second-class citizen.
Would love any feedback on this.
