Mac Catalyst seems dead to me. Five months since Tahoe’s official release and I still have crashes, ugly layouts and glitches that weren’t a problem pre-Liquid Glass.
I see no option other than build an entirely new SwiftUI-native Mac App.

It is a bummer because I was banking on these issues being fixed by now. I have a huge Foodnoms update that is almost ready, but I can’t ship it, because it would break syncing with the Mac app. I could load up Sequoia and Xcode 16.4, but Apple is going to stop accepting binaries from 16.4 in April. And the UI compatibility plist option isn’t any better. It’s ugly AF.

@ryanashcraft@mastodon.social I shipped Liquid Glass in my Catalyst app and haven’t noticed any crashes or major issues. Most issues are SwiftUI regressions where I decided not to use UIKit 🥲

@ryanashcraft@mastodon.social I often wonder what the plan, if any, is here. Four (ish) UI frameworks… forever?
