Mind you, XCode and Mail.app aren't that much better, heh. Though I agree with your overarching point.

The less said about Xcode the better ;)

Haven't had any Mail.app problems yet but I run an empty inbox.

Xcode 9 is a major improvement. They rewrote the editor which is now blazing fast and introduced (and open sourced as part of LLVM!) a new refactoring engine capable of refactoring C, C++, Objective C and Swift.

Also, they are currently in the process of rewriting the build system, with a preview shipping with Xcode 9.

Excellent. I'll play with that and see how it feels now.
