Everytime Apple upgrades Xcode I am worried something in my development workflow breaks (as has happened many times in the past). Same is true for every major macOS release the last 5 years or so.

I’m getting to the point that I consider switching to Linux, but the biggest show stopper for me is my work as iOS dev. Hopefully can move to some other tech in a couple of years so I don’t have to rely on the Apple platform for my income.

That sounds pretty painful, I've always felt bad for the people who are forced to use xCode as part of their job. I really hope Apple is forced to make cross-platform tooling, because while it's great for lock-in, it makes it really difficult for outsiders to publish cross-platform apps.
