People who complain about Xcode have never had to use android studio ;)

iOS dev here doing KMM. Android Studio (and IntelliJ) was a breath of fresh air after working so long with Xcode. I get anxiety when I have to go back to Xcode but that was partially because of the app I had to work with for a previous company.

You didn’t “get anxiety”.

I'm not sure what the purpose of this reply is. Is it an English use of the word. Do I say "experience anxiety"?

If it's my reaction to the use of Xcode then I've associated a stress response and get anxious which is partially why I left my job. The tool was also, in my experience, not a smooth or enjoyable developer experience.

Android studio became great after I upgraded from 16 to 48 gigabytes of ram. Thanks for that, Gradle!
