I don't know why anyone would want to use Apple tools if they are not developing for Apple platforms. Apple barely maintains compatibility for their own platforms, using Swift on a non-Apple platform is setting yourself up for doubule pain.
You're commenting on a post about an update... that they apparently don't do? What?
Plus Swift is arguably too unnecessarily complex now.
And there's Rust/Zig so why use Swift for low level?
At least 6 years old.
I would argue the allegations of complexity against Swift are greatly exaggerated. I find the language to be very elegant and expressive in syntax, high in readability, and fairly terse. Other than that, Swift feels near identical to every other OoP language I have used.
