I'm comfortable in C, C++, ObjC, and Swift. I like Swift, but I'm not going to contort myself to use it exclusively.

I have some stuff that has zero Swift and likely never will. Most other things are a mix.

If I'm writing any ObjC code in a new app today it's probably because either I'm working with some funky low-level API designed for C, my Swift code triggered some kind of compiler bug, or I got pissed off at the way Swift mangles the AppKit or UIKit APIs. Otherwise, I'm probably using Swift for most other things.
