alt Hacker NewsDon't worry, those "idiots" are doing perfectly fine with great salaries and a nice developer experience who apparently figured out using archaic hardware for developing newer devices is practically pointless even if there were software support.

There are great salaries in all spectrums of technology.
As for calling XCode a "nice developer experience", I can only attribute to stockholm syndrome, lack of experience with better tools or both.

I wouldn't call XCode a nice developer experience. Hell comes closer

Good salary for sure but as for the developer experience, the iOS tooling is one of the worst you can have in the modern era. I'd even pick the nodejs anarchy over xcode and that says a lot.
I've developed a lot of iOS apps for over a decade and have yet to see any semblance of the "nice developer experience" you're mentioning.
