i'm not an app dev but generally i avoid itoy ecosystem for this reason.

having to install 12gb xcode so i can convert my chrome extension to safari. or my local env/build system stop working because i update from catalina to big sur for a new uglier flatter design.

and why they have to give these stupid arbitrary names to their os, its all marketing, it makes it confusing to know what was previous and what next...
